Externam Refs wont break
Externam Refs wont break
(OP)
Hello all
Me co worker has a multi body part - wants to get part and break the reference completely. She can do this; however, when she goes to File > save as > References - -the reference is still listed there and not broken. Below is some of her email to me:
>>>I have assemblies and drawings that reference the part file that I am having difficulty breaking the links on. I dont want to re-create these assemblies and drawings. If I use the "parasolid" solution, I will have to redo prior work. I agree that saving the file as a parasolid and then re-opening it in SW and using FeatureWorks will break the link. I need a solution that will do this and maintain the integrity of established file references.<<<
Thanks all...this Mondays gonna drive me crazy...and I just dont have too far to drive!!
