Issue:
You have an extensive pressure pipe system catalog in previous version created by copied catalog to:C:ProgramDataAutodeskC3D <version>enuPressure Pipes CatalogImperial.
But, when trying to edit the parts list, create a new parts list, or create a pressure pipes network getting errors about how it can't find the catalog.
