(OP)
How can I perform a search in a top level assembly for any individual parts and any parts within in any subassemblies of that top level assembly that would not have any sort of solid features within them? Sometimes I create empty parts existing of cs0, dtm1,dtm2 and dtm3 only and assemble them by coords. I have the intention of creating solid geometry within them but sometimes I loose place and forget about the empty parts. When these parts are still within the assembly it causes problems with the Mesher I use for creating simulations so I need a way to find these empty parts and remove them from the top level assembly before simulation.
Thanks...

RE: Search question
You might be able to search for Parts with a Feature Count of <= 4.
If your assembly contains aan import feature by itself then you might find a few wrong parts.
There is an option in Feature Search's Rule Editor on the Attributes Tab under the Category Miscellaneous where you can search for features with a value "Has Solid Geometry" which you can add to a Rule List in combination with a search at top level that includes submodels.

You can search for all parts in TopLevel.asm or in Assembly Name x= TopLevel.asm to find child parts without features.
