design tables references ignored

design tables references ignored

design tables references ignored

(OP)
My macro involves files with design tables that read information off an excel file.  Frequently, the design table ignors the excel file and runs with whatever was in it while displaying no errors.

This happens both during the macro and if the design table is edited on its own.  The only way I know to fix it is to reboot.

Anybody got any ideas on how to restore this without having to reboot?

Thanks

John

RE: design tables references ignored

I know squat about macros, but I imagine you will need to post your code for the macro gurus to analyze.

RE: design tables references ignored

(OP)
I don't see how this could be a macro issue.  It is most likely a SolidWorks or Windows thing.  I just want to know how to turn this "feature" back on without having to restart SW and a minimum (often works) or rebooting.

Better yet, a macro command that would do it.

Thanks,

John
