mech and desktop interface

Question the firm I work for we have mechanical and desktop but when we open a mechincal drawing in desktop the desktop does not bring up the aec blocks. Is there a patch file that we can download to fix this. This can get bad cause if a person using desktop open our dwg. and recoveris it and then saves it lose all the work done so I am hoping there is something we do.

There are a couple things that should be done which will help you out. I
assume that you are running building systems 3 and Architectural desktop
3.3.

1. Make sure that you have service pack 2 for ADT3.3. You should be able to
get that at www.autodesk.com/ArchDesktop then click on Data & Downloads,
then Updates & Service Packs. Now click the ADT3.3 service pack 2 that fits
your situation.

2. Get the object enabler for Autodesk Building Systems. Go to
www.autodesk.com/Bldgsys then click on Data & Downloads then Utilities and
Drivers and get the Autodesk Building systems 3 object enabler.
