ACADE Freezes during auto wire#

[Anonymous]

hello,

I am using ACADE 2006 and just started to have this problem today after working with it for months.
When I attempt to automatically assign wire numbers on a dwg ACADE locks up and my cpu shoots up to 100%. I have tried rebooting, tried waiting 10 minutes to see if it would eventually recover but nothing works.
Is this an ACADE issue?


tks

I've not seen this one, but try this: Shutdown ACADE and go to your USER folder and look for the scratchpad database for your project. It will be projectname.mdb. Delete this file. Make a backup if it makes you feel better. ACADE stores all data in the drawings so this database is only used to expedite certain operations. If you had a temporary memory issue with your PC this database could become corrupted. By deleting it ACADE will rebuild it from the drawings when you re-open ACADE. If the problem was with data integrity, it will be repaired. Try to automatically assign wire numbers again now.

That seems to have worked.
