MR NX 8.0.3.4 - journal won't work now

Please help me to get this journal working again, It's one of cowski's masterpieces...
I've just put the latest maintenance pack on and it no longer works, maybe they've changed something in NX open or something...
It's the dxf creator, which exports, and imports a .cgm, and exports that.
usually you watch the drawing appear in model space, then turn white, and finish back in the drawing sheet...
Now, it flashes open the model space, then flashes a blank drawing, then goes back to the drawing sheet, and completes the dxf, without errors. But if you open the dxf, there's nothing in it and it just shows the model-space background colour.
What's weird, is i point the journal at my template part, and the background colour is different to what you see running the journal.
I've tried changing it to "Blank" but then it says it has an error in file creation.
Any help much appreciated...

I'm afraid it didn't fix the problem here, the same thing happens, 5 sheets are created, the draft file brings all the views and border into modelling space and then it gives this error (also the spaceball stops working)
if you go into sheets 2->5 it looks fine but the actual sheet 1 has been deleted

Looks like it may be deleting a temp file before it is supposed to.

If you run it on a 1 sheet drawing, does it give the same error?

that WAS a sheet one drawing, IT creates all the extra sheets on its own !
Should i send you some sample parts i used (before and after), or a log file?
P.s. the blank part is available, so its nothing to do with that..
 
@cowski, I've been working with moog on this as I work for his reseller as a support engineer.
Can I get you to contact me directly? There are some things I want to get your opinion on in regards to this problem.
