toolbox browser not showing in feature manager

toolbox browser not showing in feature manager

(OP)
I'm new to using toolbox and need some help. The browser tab to access the toolbox components is not showing up in the feature manager. I DO have both Toolbox entries enabled in the "add-ins" menu. The "Toolbox" menu is showing up in the top file menu. I'm using SW Office, 2004, SP 2.1.
Thanks for your help.

RE: toolbox browser not showing in feature manager

(OP)
I think I may have answered my own question.  I was in a part file and trying to access the toolbox through the tab in the feature manager (and it was while in the part file, the tab was not visible).  Now i'm in an assembly file and I do see the tab.  I'm assuming the toolbox tab in the file manager is only accessible while in assembly mode.

RE: toolbox browser not showing in feature manager

Correct, the Toolbox Browser panel is only available when you have an assembly document open.
When you have just a part document open, you can use the pull down menu to create CAMs, or experiment with the Bearings or Structural Steel Calculators, as well as configure your standards and Toolbox user interface.
