So i was debugging a Parasolid file that my co-worker receive from our customer as he could not save the file…
After some debugging… the issue is because of the file name used is too long… It is a whopping 204 character…

What other file name that does not make sense that you guys have come across?
I got a handful of parts in an assembly that were all Chinese characters that my OS couldn’t deal with. I just renamed them and re-referenced them back into the assembly.

CopyOf^CopyOf^CopyOf^CopyOf^
I do come across a few similar cases…
Chinese and Japanese characters can be a headache sometimes in CAD 
This is exactly what happen to the file that my co-worker received…
Virtual component can be a real pain sometimes 
…
<()> what a PITA… I’d say “Virtual Components” (embedded parts) functionality was implemented about 90~95% correctly.
There’s a macro that might be of help to you.
