Survey Link Problem Can not convert to fbk file

I am trying to convert my TDS .raw file to a softdesk .fbk file and it does not work in Survey Link. It comes up with an error file in use.  Not sure what is going on with this.  How do I make htis conversion.  I have viewed the .raw file in Survey Link and it looks fine.

If it says error file in use I would suspect you have the file open in another application, notepad or some other software. If that is the case be sure to close the other application when converting.

No that is not the problem.  I got around it by moving the file to the c:\ Civil3D Projects.  Did nothing different to convert but it worked from there.  I was accessing the file from a netwrok drive.  Not sure why it would not work like that?  Any thought why?

Just speculation, but It may be some issue with your network's setup or lag due to traffic. I've had files do wierd things like that before. Sometimes I can't re-open a file I just closed with write privleges for 30-60 seconds because the network hasn't caught up and thinks someone else has the file open.
