    I have a vendor supplied file that was sent as a Solidworks file.  I opended in Inventor 2010 and was able to get a construction group that has one solid and 104 surfaces. The Quality Check shows 3 errors that I cannot figure out how to fix.  I am new to inventor, especially surfaces.  I am trying to turn into solid so that I can tweak it in a presentation file?? Can anyone help.  File is too big to attache to this post.  I can email it though.  About 5 MB.

    Did you ever get this figured out?  Should post questions over in the discussion forum rather than here.
