.flatfile??

[Jarick]

I keep receiving files with the extension .flatfile. The sender says they are CATIA v4 files but i have no way of viewing them. Any suggestions? Can they be translated?

Thanks in advance.

the shot-in-the-dark question here,

its not just a file that can be renamed .model and then opened, right?

Right. I've tried that. I'm going to try to rename it to a .exp and try to import that to v4 and then to v5. we'll see where that gets me.

Those are most certainly .exp files, and most likely from AutoWeb.

Going from memory, I believe if you change the extension to '.exp' and then use the Catia V5 utility "ExtractModelFromSequential" it should come in.

Good luck.
