I'm attempting to create a sheet set from existing drawings, but when I point the "New Sheet Set Wizard" to the folder containing my 8 or so drawings (with 24 or so associated layouts), only 2 drawings appear with 6 associated layouts for import. The other layouts don't even show up as being part of another sheet set. How do I get the New Sheet Set Wizard to "see" the layouts?
Thanks!

The layouts are all simple alphanumeric names of maximum 7 characters. I renamed the files themselves to eliminate hyphens and reduce file name length (example name: Level 1), but this didn't help.
Any next steps to try?

This happens to me sometimes, I completely close out of the sheetset and Autocad and then reopen.
That seems to help me.

Still didn't help. I tried creating the sheet set and importing additional drawings after the sheet set existed, and this worked. Problem solved, but still, it's an odd issue.
