Core and Cavity separation using MDT6

Core and Cavity separation using MDT6

Core and Cavity separation using MDT6

(OP)
Hello all,
Does anyone have suggestions on how to separate core and cavity pieces while still keeping the history information of the part?  For example, if you have a cavity block and you cut the plastic part model from the cavity block, you are left with one solid part with two separate volumes.  You can explode the solid and separate the two volumes, but, you lose the history info.  We are using Acad MDT6 without any add-on packages.

Thanks
