Switchback "NWLOAD" command

[mezzas]

I'm trying to use the switchback options between CAD and Navis, but the NWLOAD command is comming up as an "unknown comand". Has anyone had this problem and got it working?

Answer:
Use APPLOAD in MEP to reload the Navisworks ARX files, found in
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Navisworks\2010\NWExport20xx\
Autodesk Tech support

i am having the same problem but with the nwnavigator command. the nwload works and i did have to load it manually, everytime i try to load the nwnavigator.arx file it says it cannot load. i am 64-bit autocad 2011 and navis manage 2011 as well.

any help would be helpful?

thanks

Just to assist in this, nwnavigator and nwcout & similar showing up in AutoCAD & verticals as unknown commands usually means that the exporter failed to register the commands with that version of AutoCAD. Typically this is as a result of the AutoCAD application being installed subsequent to Navisworks, in which case re-running the setup of Navisworks to reinstall or repair the AutoCAD exporter should also fix it.

Appload bypasses the command lookup, and loads the exporter directly. As a side-effect of being apploaded, the exporter will register its commands, doing the same thing that the installer does.

Hope that helps,

Jeff

I can appload the exporter part of the software but the nwnavigator errors out and will not load. i have tried a couple of versions now and get no success. Please advise. nwdout works but not nwnavigator.

i am running xp pro, autocad mep 2011, and manage 2011. i have reloaded and repaired navis twice so far and it did not help.

thanks

I can not install "nwload" in Autocad MEP 2014 (Navisworks 2014). During inslallation Autocad MEP 2014 did not ask about this function (when I worked in simple Autocad, I was asked about it). When I call "nwload", programm can not understand me. It seems to me, that Autocad MEP can't use this function...

Sorry for my English... I tried tj write correctly...
