Options.
3. Click Data Exchange in the Creo Parametric Options dialog box and make sure that CATIA, Creo Elements/Direct, SolidWorks, NX, and Inventor check boxes under Open by default are selected by default.
4. Browse and select the format-specific import or open profiles that you created or modified for the retrieval of CATIA V5, CATIA V5 CGR, or CATIA V4, Creo Elements/Direct, SolidWorks, NX, or Autodesk Inventor models and designate them as the default profiles for the file open task. They are listed as the default profiles for the corresponding formats in the table under Import and Open Profiles.
