Problems "revolving circle".. (Newb)
(OP)
All I want to do is revolve the circle 360 degress around so it looks like a 3.5" pipe going around in a full circle, but the "Revolved Boss/Base" and "Swept Boss/Base" commands are greyed out. What am i doing wrong?

Also, there is no centerline for your revolve.

And do I need a centerline? I just want it in a full 360 degrees.

You need a centerline because otherwise Solidworks has no idea what your axis of revolution is.
You really need to work through the tutorials - the couple of questions you've asked here are very basic. I don't say this to be harsh. When it's this apparent that you haven't taken the time to learn a few basics on your own the experienced people who frequent this site won't take time out of their busy schedules to respond. If they do, the answers may prove less than helpful...

If it is a part, the commands should be greyed out.
Can you post a complete screen shot showing all menus, etc ... or the part file itself.

It's best if we can look at the swx data. it's probably real simple.
