    Error message when loading .fwd file

    Product(s): InRoads
    Version(s): 08.11.09+
    Area:  Survey
    Original Author: Holly Herring, Bentley Technical Support Group

     

    Question:

    When I try to load a .fwd file, I get this error: Bad file (.tiw File) opened. Perhaps an I/O error!. What is causing this?

    Answer:

    .fwd files point to a .tiw file to import your points. This message means the tiw file is not in the correct location. Copy the tiw to the correct location. The default location is C:\ProgramData\Bentley\Civil\SurveyTools\8.11.9\en\Data
