Re-numbering components
Re-numbering components
(OP)
Hi All,
I've had the misfortune of being assigned a re-numbering project using Solidworks 2010, maybe you guys know the best way to go about it? I've a large assembly consisting of many sub-assemblies and maybe 200 components. I have to re-number all of these models and their respective drawings. I've previously re-numbered another project using solidworks 2007 and it took around 5 weeks, I'm thinking there has to be a faster way! What I did previously was; open the component within its assembly, save as the new part number, then save the assembly as a new number. Then I deleted the old component, opened its drawing, annd when prompted to search for the missing part, selected the newly numbered component.
Does anyone done something similar and know of a faster way?

I remember doing one assy once, it was 100 odd components but I only had to change 50 odd. It took me 15-20 mins once I had a list of all the changes.
