Dimensions have left the building!

The issue we are having is when
using older pro version parts or backing up a multi sheet-drawing
package to use for a similar project to "reuse the engineering" the
dimensions will go away when we revisit the drawing package. We are
using Wildfire 5 or Creo elements / pro 5.0 and have not had this issue
with previous versions.

This is a big issue for us because you do not
know there is an issue until you go back and open the drawings. It seems
to be a part association issue but I have no idea what causes it. The
drawing preview even shows the dimensions that were there when the
package was completed. This seems to happen to the dimensions that have
been manually added, not driven dimensions or "shown" dimensions.

I have
already turned in a case file to PRO-E but they take forever getting
back, any help will be greatly appreciated.</div>
