From what I understand a constraint is trying to solve geometry which is
dependant on the original geometry creating a cyclic dependency, something
IV doesn't like. Just cause you have deleted all geometry from sketch
doesn't mean that IV has let go of this problem. The file might now be
corrupted. I would copy part and try, rebuild all and redefine the problem
sketch by RMB. And try deleting other sketches / geometry that the problem
sketch is built on. When you have a solution go back to the virgin part. The
other solution is to zip up part and post to CF.
