Unresolved Inventor File References
When files referenced by an Inventor model are not found automatically,
drawing views derived from this model are said to contain unresolved file
references.
A drawing view can contain unresolved file references for any of the following
reasons.
a Paths to referenced files are not specified in the active project.
b The referenced files were renamed, moved, or deleted, and no longer
exists within any of the storage locations defined by the active project.
c AutoCAD is pointing to the wrong active project file, or has not selected
any project file as the active project file.
For cases a and b, use Autodesk Inventor to update the project file to specify
the current location of the files that are not found automatically.
For case c, use the VIEWSETPROJ command to select the correct project file
as the active project file.
