I am looking for a way to make a part "smart" i am trying to make a bracket that when put into an assembly it automatically puts two holes in what i mate it to.
now im not sure of the best way to approach this, or if its even possible. but its a simple bracket with two mounting holes in it.
also im using sw2011, if that matters
 
Have you taken the Assembly Modeling class offered by your VAR? Smart components are covered. Otherwise Smart Components are covered in the Tutorials. Go to Help-->Tutorials, and then look under All SoidWorks Tutorials (Set 2). What you have described doesn't sound complicated at all so I'm sure it is possible.
