    Solid Edge Standard Parts Database Manager

    Searched previous threads and didn't see an answer anywhere. Is it possible to install the standard parts administrator on two separate workstations? I need to make some modifcations to the property files of hundreds of standard parts, and the database manager seems the best way. -av8errr...

    Re-assigning orgin for hole table

    Is there a way to re-assign the orgin for a hole table? I have tried to click on the orgin step, and I am able to create an X2 and Y2 orgin arrows. However, if I delete the first X1 and Y1 arrows, the table goes blank. Anyone have any luck with this? -av8errr Solid Edge ST3 MP11 HP Z400 W3565...

    Using sketch driven features in assembly environment?

    In general, I try not to use sketches that much. I generate the geometry in the initial part file, say for instance a set of splined teeth. I would generate the initial tooth, and pattern it. Then, if I needed to utilize that geometry in another part for a cutout or protrusion, i would "Include"...

    Using sketch driven features in assembly environment?

    In most cases, that's the best way to do it... in the part file. And a side note, if you wish to do a cutout using text, such as an engraving, it is the only way. -av8errr Solid Edge ST3 MP9 HP Z400 W3565 @3.00GHz Win XP X64 15GB RAM NVIDIA Quadro 2000

    Solid Edge ST2 Excel Link for Synchronous Part

    From your screen shot, it appears that all of your dims are driven. Outside of the variable table, and in the model....try to click on a dim. A window should appear that you can type a dim into. Adjacent to the field is a lock, which will appear unlocked. Click on it, so that the dim is locked...

    Solid Edge ST2 Excel Link for Synchronous Part

    If you look closely at the variable table, there is a column named Value. At the right side of the variables that are dimensions, there is a lock tab. This must be selected, and show locked in order to drive the dims via an excel worksheet. Then, click on the cell in the excel worksheet that has...

    Anyone have issues running ST4 on XP?

    We are stuck with Windows XP for 6 months to a year, but would like to get current with ST4. Has anyone run into issues installing/using ST4 on XP that I should be concerned with. Our support "will not address XP operating system related issues, or provide XP-specific fixes." -av8errr Solid...

    An error occurred and i lost my document

    Yup, been there. I don't know of any way to recover it. Sorry, I've been burned by this as well. There is an autosave feature, but this slows down my "creative jucies." -av8errr Solid Edge ST3 MP9 xw4600 3GB RAM Core2Quad CPU 3.00GHz NVIDIA Quadro FX4800

    I don't see how you can. Occasionally SE will ask if you want to save your document (just prior to forced closing) -av8errr Solid Edge ST3 MP9 xw4600 3GB RAM Core2Quad CPU 3.00GHz NVIDIA Quadro FX4800

    Linking cell in excel to file properties of part/draft file.

    I am quite familiar with linking cells in elxel to the variable table, but is there a way to link a cell to file properties within a part file or draft file. For instance, is it possible to link a part number located in a spreadsheet, to the "Title" for the draft property? Also, has anyone come...

    Variation of same part

    If it is just one variable (length) you are modifying use the variable table. If it is more than a few, go with an excel sheet. I have used an excel table, and linked values (about 25 for a part) to the variable table in solid edge. Then, using revision manager, I create copies of that part...

    I also run dual monitors, and have had issues with edgebar. I resolved them by reverting to a right primary monitor, and restarting the computer. Edgebar then showed up on the left monitor. I then dragged the edgebar back into the solid edge window, and attached it to the default left hand...
