Search derived parts from an original part 2

[rgrayclamps]

Hi,

In SW, you can create derived parts from an original part. But, is there a way to search all derived parts if I know this original part?

I just noticed that revising an original part is complicated as I do not know how many derived parts that reference the original through deriving.

Using SolidWorks Explorer you can do a "find where used". Within that process you can select which types of files it will look for. Derived parts are among those that it can find.
