wally318 Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 When I open a drawing I get the message: One or more SHX files are missing.What do you want to do? Specify a replacement for each SHX file. Or Ignore the missing SHX file and continue. How do I figure out what SHX file is missing? Quote
ReMark Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Who did you get this drawing file from in the first place and why didn't they include the SHX files to go with it? Quote
wally318 Posted March 15, 2012 Author Posted March 15, 2012 It is new AutoCad. It happens on all drawings. Quote

Or Ignore the missing SHX file and continue. How do I figure out what SHX file is missing? If you click on "Specify a replacement".... for each missing SHX file, you will get a browse for file dialog, and the name of the missing SHX file will be in the "File Name" field. Quote
