### Step 3: Editing the Registry with Pro/ENGINEER Information

In this step you will modify the ProEngineer section of the registry file so that it contains an executable name entry.

Note: If you cannot find the ProEngineer section inside the Settings Editor, you may need to call Customer Support to verify that this option is turned on in your portlock (or dongle). If you're calling within the United States, the number is (800) 343-7933. If you're calling outside the United States the number is (1) (800) 343-7933.

1. Access PC-DMIS's Settings Editor from the PC-DMIS programs group. Select Start | Program Files | PC-DMIS for Windows and then click on the Settings Editor icon.

2. Click the plus sign (+) next to the ProEngineer section. The list expands, showing the options associated with this section.

3. Click on the ProEngineerExecutabelName entry.

4. Change the values of this entry setting it equal to the executable name used to launch Pro/ENGINEER. Normally this would be something like PROE20 or Proe2000i2 depending on how Pro/ENGINEER was setup to run on your computer. Typically, the ProEngineerExecutableName entry is set to the name that is required to run Pro/ENGINEER from a Command Prompt window.

Note: If you cannot get the interface to work properly, you might try entering the entire file path of your Pro/ENGINEER executable (i.e. C:\ ProgramFiles\Proe2000i2 . . . \Proe2000i2.bat).

The modified entry in the ProEngineer section would look like this:

ProEngineerExecutableName=PROE20

or

ProEngineerExecutableName=Proe2000i2

5. Click Save Setting, and then click OK to close the Settings Editor.
