1.8 Desk Command
When a CATIA product model is created, file paths to component
files (e.g., *.CATPart and *.CATProduct) are written to the
Product file. If the system cannot locate these files during
retrieval, a message window opens, similar to the one shown in
Figure 1–23.

If Close is clicked, the system does not include the missing
component in the assembly.
If Desk is clicked, a Desk window opens, displaying the
assembly and its components in a tree. Any missing components
are highlighted in red. To locate the missing component,
right-click on it in the tree and select Find, as shown in
Figure 1–24.

browse for the missing component. Once the component has
been located, the Desk window can be closed.
