Issues with drawing P&IDs using CADWORX

2017-08-10View Original

Thread Content

I’m following the tutorial to create P&IDs using CADWORX and an ACCESS real-time database, but I can’t get it to work. Have you encountered such problems when using CADWORX for P&IDs? I checked on Baidu and was told that Access isn’t sufficient; I then installed Office 2010, but it still didn’t work. Does anyone who uses CADWORX know if there might be something else that needs to be installed? Also, without a real-time database, it seems that drawing is possible, and devices can be displayed, but it doesn’t seem possible to generate tables for device and instrument data; I haven’t tried it before so I’m not sure~ Let’s start a new project – first, we’ll begin with a practice project that uses a real-time database. When you use a real-time database, you will have the opportunity to experience the more advanced features of the software. Using a real-time database will allow you to easily apply project databases and generate reports. Secondly, the real-time database functionality will also allow you to use the instrument loop generator, network publisher, and device & instrument specification sheets.

Does object snapping turn off automatically when you use this software to insert valves?
