"The sketch has no countor geometry"

[Eric MFG]

Hi,

For some reason Soildworks 2008 recently started to act up giving me a message "The sketch has no contour geometry" basically I’m working on a sheet metal box and use the "base-flange/tab I get error mentioned above. I made sure all contours were closed even went as far as to use the rectangle tool and still get the same message.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Eric

Have you changed anything about the rest of the model since you started the sketch? If you referenced the sketch from part of the model, then since removed it or edited it then the reference would have got deleted and the sketch is just 'hanging' with no references to where it should be... I would try starting a new feature and do a new sketch referenced from something or somewhere else.
