Hi,
I have large no. of 2d drawings created in SolidWorks 2009. I need to insert blocks and make similar changes across several 100s of drawings. Is there any way I can make these changes in one shot or any simpler method rather than opening each drawing and making the changes?
One method I...
Sooperb Handleman.
This was a very good one, more than what I wanted, with the time setting for each config view. Very useful, though I did not think of this when I asked you this.
Excellent, Thank you very much!!!
Thanks Handleman.
Your Macro was exact and works wonderfully.
Is there a macro available which will run thru the configs and we are able to see the model updates as it goes thru the configs.
Hi,
I have a part with 180 configurations.
Is there a macro available which will run thru all the configurations and give a list in case there are errors in any of the configurations?
Thanks,

We can call it a limitation.
If you have controlled dimensions from design table (direct value entry without any excel formulae only) then selcting "Allow model edits to update design table" & not selecting "Warn when updating design table" in design table edit feature is the only solution.
In...
Rockguy,
I feel like doing that many a times!!!
At present I am unable to install SW 2009 plus it is also affecting my SW 2008! I am unable to use pack & go and I don't know what other problems I will come across.
I am also not sure if this is windows xp related or SW related. The error of...
One more information
If the dimension is controlled using a formula in excel then the warning persits irrespective of what options you select
That's last info :)
I forgot to mention one more thing.
Right Click on Design Table -> Edit Feature -> In options remove tick from Warn when updating design table
Else you will get a warning stating changing this dimension will update values in design table
Right Click on Design Table -> Edit Feature -> In Edit Controls select Allow model edits to update design table.
This will solve the problem but even by mistake if you change a dimension the same will get updated in the design table.
This is not new to SW 2008. The same case prevails from...
Hi,
I tried to install SolidWorks 2009 Beta 1 but the same would not work on my system. I asked my reseller and he told that it will not work on a system already having any version of SolidWorks. I tried uninstalling the same but I am unable to do so. It gives an error:

I have some cadkey files (.PRT & .CKD). I am able to open the PRT files but I am unable to open CKD files. On opening the PRT files I can see that these are 2D drawings. I strongly believe these are created from 3D models from the look of it. I did some research on how to open the 3D and found a...
I tried this but it is not working. I tried opening ".PRT" files but all I get is some 2D and/or 3D sketches. Sometimes the imported part is void.
Any suggestions on this is highly appreciated.
Hi,
We are planning to migrate CADKEY data to SolidWorks. I have one license of CADKEY and the team doing the migration don't have CADKEY.
The CADKEY with me has a DXF export with manual and batch options. Exporting to DXF either manually or batch is not useful as there is lot of data loss.
Can...
The configurations might be the issue here. I have 50 configurations in the assembly!!! I am surprised this should be an issue between the service packs!
Assembly file is not corrupt as it is opening in SP2.2 and not opening in SP4.0
Will test by deleting a few configs & give it a try again or...
