Reference wont display after closing file

I have created a model that has all of my line work in it called MASTER. Then I create a NEW model and reference the MASTER file. It shows up and works fine. But when I close my NEW model, and re-open it, my MASTER reference is red. Then I have to re-attach it. This happens with every attachment in my NEW model.

The NEW model, and the MASTER are in the same folder on my server.

I have tried the "Save Relative Path" option when I am attaching the MASTER, but after I select "Open", the reference doesn't come through. It says "File not found".

The odd thing is that I have an aerial image referenced in .dgn format that does stay referenced when I close. It is two folders up from where the MASTER and NEW models are on the server.

I have tried "Save Settings".

What the heck am I missing here?

  • Thank you for all of your help. I have looked over the links, and I think I am referencing correctly. the MS_RFDIR is set to the folder I am working in, and all of the files I am referencing are located in the same file, with exception to a Title block reference. Unfortunately I don't have a co-worker that I can consult as I am the one tasked to producing this project with MS. I do have specific .pcf and .ufc files to work with, and I am wondering if the miscommunication stems from there. Here is my debug file. msdebug.zip
