In the family table for that component, the column that holds the value I'm interested in is labeled "d42" and also has the name "L". I first used the d42 in my equation - no luck, so I then tried the name "L" - same thing. The "4" after the L is the...
Just to have something to refer to, here is my code.
INPUT
RK STRING
"Do you want the short (S) or long (L) retention knob?"
COLLET_CHUCK STRING
"Enter holder number (ie. 100300,150350,etc)"
EXT_A YES_NO
"Do you need an extension (Y,N)?"
IF EXT_A == YES...
Thanks to both of you for your response.
I understand pretty well how the family table works. I checked the family table and the dimension I'm interested in is designated as D42 and it also has a name of "L" for length. But.....when I enter either into my program it creates an error...
If I want to use a value from an instance in a program, how do I refer to it knowing that its designation is different on each instance. For ex., on one instance a dimension may be L:4 and on another it is called L:25. I want to include it in a relation (D1 = LENGTHA + L:4) where the number...
Thanks Cardenas,
I think... it's working now, not sure because it seems to accept my input, but the change isn't being reflected in the model. The same part stays in the assembly visually. Is there something else that needs to be done to force that through?

Thanks Hora,
I have read Oxana's thread and in fact printed it out since it almost identical to my scenario. I've tried the suggestions in that thread and your latest suggestion with no luck. I've pretty much concluded that I have an issue with my family table or something.
Thanks for your...
Thanks Hora for replying,
I tried your suggestion and am getting the error shown below. I've tried every imaginable variation I could think of including using quotes, parenthesis, lower case, etc. I have verified the validity of the family table and it's instances. Is there something else I...
I can't figure out why a simple program for a two part assy won't work. The second part is part of a family table. I get no errors but Pro tells me that the model didn't change. Could someone please look at my code and see what I am doing wrong? I've tried multiple variations of code with errors...
