incorporating sheets from an IDEAS drwaing into NX 7.5 drawing

[greggor]

I have a 6 page drawing I am making in NX and the last 2 pages are identical to the inforomation found on an old IDEAS drawing of the sprevios part exxept one base view. It's been 6 years since I have used IDEAS but we still have a license to use it.
How can I best copy those last two pages out of IDEAS and use them as the last two in my current NX drawing? I will need to update the part number fields and replace one view once it is added to my new drawing. Using NX 7.5.4.4.

Try the following:

I-deas
1. Get the drawing from the Bin->switch to Master Drafting
2. File->Export->AS-Drawing (ASC file)
(This will export all sheets so you may need to copy the drawing and delete a couple of the sheets first. Or delete them in NX)

NX
3. Open the existing drawing
4. File->Import->I-deas ASC

The views on the sheets will not be associated to the model. (Any model associativity requires Content Migration Manager)

If it's simply notes in I-deas, you could use symbol files instead (.sym).

Please note, this pulls an nx_drafting_plus increment from the licence.
If you do not have this, you could use dxf, dwg or cgm.
