[gianlucap]

Good day to all!
my problem today is that I received from a client a file of inventor 2009 with the ipj extension, I also have 2009 but I do not find how to open it! !
Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

It makes no sense to open it.. .
is the file you need to upload to tell inventor where to find the libraries, styles and components of that specific project. . .

but excuse the provocative question. . .
you have inventor both your client....
should you know what the project files are? How do you use inventor? ? ?

 

[Peppe]

do not have to open it, load it in the initial mask when you open or new, go to project and load it.. .
Don't you use the project files? ?
the project file serves to locate your work area, indicating which libraries to draw from your business parts, your design models and style libraries....

we are not used to use components that we draw from the library, because we are slowing down the machines (e.g. screws etc.), we test for example that the screw does not interfere with anything and then we go to remove it!
Anyway thank you so much!

Wherever the client sent you only the ipj file?
If so, he didn't understand us.

It has nothing to do with how you work, the point is that it is as if you had sent only the index of a book but missing everything else, it doesn't take much.. .

opening the total inventor told me that some components were missing, but going to give it as reference the famous ipj folder of the content center still could not find them.
we are not used to use the libraries for the speech I said before and so I couldn't understand why the file didn't open properly despite him claiming he gave me all the project!
That's why I wanted to open it to see if the files I missed were inside that folder!
fact is that by recalling the customer and explaining everything to him, he realized that some files of the center ended up in other parts instead of in that folder!
Don't explain to me why I just don't know how to tell you, however, it fixed everything by making me have the correct file!
