Sorry to ask a basic question
If I'm working in an assembly and alter one of the parts I.E cut a hole in it can I refelct that change back to the original parts model.

RE: update parts from assembly

If the part is in Edit mode inside the assy, you are actually working at the part level and any changes would be reflected in the part.

RE: update parts from assembly

CAUTION:  If there is more than one copy of the part on a drive you have access to... - the changes you make, may not be reflected.  Generally speaking, SolidWorks is good about this...best rule though is to only have one copy.
