Give my buddy a call...he cah hook you up.
J. Bordwine at 281-765-3200, he can get it from his engineering dept. and forward it to you.
Send me an email to let me know if he hooked you up.
prex is correct...
Additionally, it is going to depend on what will be connected to either the Pad or LW Neck.
Connection the the Pad s a studded connection and for the LW Neck a standard bolted connection.
Typically, a studded connection is used where there is minimum clearance on the component...
Is it possible to access programatically all of the crosshatch properties besides the line type type and thickness?
I'm interested in accessing the pattern style as well as the scale and angle.
If it is possible, does anyone have some code to do this so I don't have to reinvent the wheel.
Any...
As I understand your post:
1. Once you have an assembly mated that functions, ie.. moves in some capacity the way you want it, then insert that assembly into another, then the movement in the second assembly ceses because it moves as a complete unit, therefore is locked by the system.
2. You...
What version of SW are you working in?
How large are these sub assemblies?
and what type of geometry are you trying to mate to?
Can you send an example as well?
If you guys really want to know, I have a friend that does this type of testing for a living. He is the QC Manager for a manufacturing company that is certified under ISO-9000 and NCA-3800 for the nukes as well as MIL-I-45208 for the government. I will be glad to give you his number so you can...
Solidworks has a piping add-in that works pretty gook.
Check with your Solidworks VAR for this.
Otherwise, you will have to do it all manually using the 3D sketcher.
SBaugh is correct.
Once compiled, you will have to run the Add-In Manager
to register it with Solidworks, additionally the .dll will have to be registered with your system.
Otherwise, VB may be the way to go instead of having a menu item directly in SW.
Instead of using geometry, although, is a good idea, you might consider using it's planes to mate up 2 of the 3 minumum required mates and for the last use a face for its final position.
If this doesn't work for you, you might consider applying a reference axis to the sub-assemblies that you...
I just sent you your model back. It was a quick fix taking less than 2 minuites.
I did 2 things, first I moved your profile outside of the part and then used a pierce relation to the leading corner of your profile to the helix. Piece of cake.
Hope that helps you out.

Are any of your fields tied to a database?
Your last post was more confusing than the first.
How about giving a little more information, lets say an example of what you intend to input and into which field as well as what you want to see in the other fields.
This might clear things up a little.
Sounds like to me that you need to write you a VB app and do all of your work from there.
Retrieve all of the data from the database as well as your word documents and mix and match however you need the output to be formatted. All of this can be handled programmatacially without having to...
Send me a copy of your model and I will be able to help you out. It will be easier if I take a stab at it rather than trying to explain it.

I'm not 100% sure that you can remove the inch marks from the text, however, if you are writing code to change values, you can overwrite the text and this will accomplish this.
However, if you do this, you loose the ability to have the dimension updated with changes; these will have to be done...
