Design Tables?

[CajunCAD]

I have successfully inserted design tables into part files to generate multiple configurations. In some files I deleted the design table afterwards, in some files I left the design table alone. What is considered the "best practice"? I would also like to make derived configurations of the configurations generated by the design table (same geometry, different part # & material).

This has been working without any issues in SW2001 - SW2003. Now that I upgraded to SW2004 all my configurations are using the same dimensions.

Any ideas on how to salvage my files with their configurations and derived configurations?

I think somewhere in the options there is a check for them to all be the same ("All Configurations&quot, but I don't have it on this box, so I have to trust you will find it or someone will help.

If I never need the Design Table again, I delete them. For standard parts that have a bunch of configs, I save the design table externally, and delete it from the file, just in case. If i ever need to change the stuff in the DT, like the "matl" for instance, I change the external table, and then re-import the DT into the part to update all the configs.
