In the other parts, when in sketcher, select IMPORT DATA FROM FILE and search for the section.

Give it a try and let me know what you think.

To go beyond Michael's post, have you tried design UDFs?
These are a group of features, which you can save, and reuse on other models. When placing them on other models, proe asks only the references of the features in the udf.
You can define dimensions of features in the udf for example as read-only, and when you place it, you cannot change the values. Sometimes it is useful.
Try UDF, and you will see how effective work can be done with proe

RE: sketches into different model
Thanks for the tips to try but Im having trouble with them.
1) When I save a sketch and try to import it into the other model, import is grayed out so I cant import it? How do you get the sketch into the other part?
2) When I try to copy the feature into the other model I select the feature but then I dont get another dialouge box or anything. It asks me to open ass001 to define the feature???
I havent tried the UFD's yet but will this week. Thanks again for your imput.
RE: sketches into different model
I think you did not know or follow that you have to be in sketcher mode for new part, then import the section you saved using IMPORT DATA FROM FILE. 3dlogix did state that you have to be in sketcher mode
Hope this helps.

I'm sorry, you're turning off Intent manger, section tools, place section and find the file name.
