This isn't a Pro/E problem but I thought I might get a quick solution from all the smart & helpful people here. Sometime over the last couple of days our sys admin has let through an ms windoze or ms orifice update that has completely blocked our ability to import various graphics files into ms word.
We typically make shop floor work instructions and standard operating procedures in MS word 2003. We export either hpgl or cgm files from various authoring programs including Pro/E and AutoMAD. This has worked without a hitch for at least the last decade. Nothing has changed in the authoring programs but suddenly we can't import either of these file formats into word 2003. I've heard that Word 2007 blocked all graphics formats not owned by Mr. Bill. Looks like they have found a way to screw those of us who have not updated. Anybody know a work around?
