In the spotweld list, some of the spotwelds are highlighted in red. Those spotwelds are called "uncreated" spotwelds. They are "uncreated" because the parts defined in the spotweld do not exist, or the projections on the surface of the parts cannot be found according the parameter of the spotweld definition file.
