Error message when attempting to use Hole Wizard
(OP)
I'm getting an error when I click on the Hole Wizard button in SolidWorks 05...
"Out of memory or other error trying to initalize data source from standards file 'C:\Program Files\SolidWorks\data\Default.mbd'"
Has anyone else had this problem before? If so how did you go about fixing it?

I did some further investigation. One of the uses for Default.mdb is to store HoleWizard favorites. I moved the file out of the SolidWorks data folder to see what would happen if I tried to create a HoleWizard hole. I did not get the error message you got. Instead SolidWorks re-created the Default.mdb file. I then added a favorite. The favorite was added to the Default.mdb file. I then deleted the mdb file and tried to edit hole I had just put in using the favorite. No error message. SolidWorks just re-created the Default.mdb file again. Since SolidWorks re-creates the file, I do not know why you cannot find it in the data folder under the SolidWorks folder?
My question now, how long had you been using this installation of SolidWorks before the message occurred? Did this problem start after SolidWorks crashed? Did this problem start after installing other software on your computer? Do you have a VAR that you can contact?

Let me ask you this... Is there any other way to put a hole at an angle through a part?
