I need to convert a Unigraphics file to Ideas. I know how to IGES it out and import it from Ideas, but the problem is I have numerous ( hundreds) of items that need translating. It would take far to long to iges each one separately. Designing in UG is much easier than doing it in Ideas, for me anyway. The problem is that Ford Motor requires that the stocklist, or bill of materials be in Ideas. To be more specific, the file is a stamping die. It consists of castings and standard or purchased items which I can import along with their attributes, but I know I may lose these in the proccess. My plan is to design it in UG as far as I can, than convert to Ideas and run their stocklist program. Is there a way to convert the entire file? Thanks in advance for any help.
