I am making some welds in Inventor. I have been getting this particular error sometimes. Any ideas?

I've got the same issue now. And it caused a crash earlier.
2 identical assemblies (A & B), exactly the same weld types at the same locations for both.
All stuff done on assembly A were successful; B was ok until the above-mentioned happened.
Also, while fiddling around assembly B the dialog box that allows you specify the weld parameters has got parantheses on one of the fields, and the parantheses showed up in the annotation.
But this didnt happen for A for the same field; no brackets.
Anybody got any resolution to this?

Alright,
I shall answer my own (as well as TS') question..
Be careful of how you build the weld.
There could be possibly more than a single way to build the weld, and some cases, some methods produces the same weld visually.
How you select the faces involved, chained or not, full-face or not, and etc., will determine the weld annotation plane location.
Experts please respond and offer a more concise / detailed explanation?
Thanks,
James
I resolved by Supressing all the welds then turning them on by groups of 5-10. When we got the error we found the problematic weld and editied it. We then fixed it and this solved the rest of the welding issues that we were having with the models. All we did was switch the 1st and 2nd faces with each other and turned off the chain faces. Hope this helps.....
