All, So I have a bolt pattern that I created using HoleWizard. I have multiple holes created by selecting the "Positions" tab in HW. When I bring this part into an assy and try to do a feature driven pattern, I want to skip an instance but it does not allow me to select any intances to skip...

All, In all of our part files we have our preset properties that we require users to fill out. The question I had was, using a macro how could I write in a fixed value? The example I am trying to do is, in the part file we have "Revision". So the user needs to fill in something here in the part...

SW2005 Sp5.0 All, I was using the SW BOM and was having issues with column widths. There is some "padding" left and right of the BOM text, and when you are trying to narrow a width of a column, it starts to wrap when it gets too narrow. What I was looking to figure out is how to reduce this...

All, We have come across an issue where SW's c'bore dimensions do not match the diameters of any common bought c'bore tools. Has anyone noticed this? or are we missing something? The companies concern is that we are adding cost by forcing a machine shop to iterpulate a bore or use an uncommon...

All, This has always been working for me in the past, but for some reason it does not work now. When I have a part in an assy, and open it from the assy, then resave off that part as a new filename, the file name does not appear in the assy feature tree even after rebuild. Would anyone have an...

All, I am trying to create a rolled sheetmetal part in SW2005. I am having difficulty getting this to work. I viewed thread559-83712 and have not found this to help much. I have started by drawing the bent profile first, then I did a Base-Flange on that sketck. That worked, but when I try and...

All, We have had some complaints from our vendors, that the tap drill depths in SW are not deep enough on blind holes. Would anyone know what file controls this action? I know in the HW window, I can manually change it, but we have been asked if as a whole we can make these depths 2X the thread...

All, Sorry if this has been answered, but if it was I could not find it. I would like to find a way to insert points into a part. What I was looking for is a table or such, that I can put the x-y-z value for a point and SW will insert that point at those coordinates. I wanted to add many points...

All, We use PDM and on part drawing would like to put the next assy part number where this part is used. Does anyone have any ideas of an easy way to do this? Is there a field that you can draw from PDM that would populate this new field with the "Where Used"? Or a macro? Thank You.
