Sam,
If you can get the object to load again, try performing MERGE on it at
least three times. If the geometry is somehow corrupted this should repair it.
Once you've done this, then perform CHECK OBJ, to verify that the problems have
been fixed. Imagine is very good at repairing flaky geometry, if that's the
problem.
If you can't get the object to load into Imagine try taking it into
another program that will load DXF, save it out anew from there, reload it into
Imagine and perform the above steps on it.
Whenever you're modeling a complex object and doing a lot of point and
edge manipulation, it's a good idea to perform MERGE and CHECK OBJ
periodically, and especially after each intense editing session.
