Actually, I'm working with costs, and it would be nice to say that something is (at the least) 1.00 dollars, or hopefully $1.00, as opposed to 1.00 ul. I know there is a "Cost" part in properties, but i need a cost that is dependant on length, and this is the best way i have found.
I'm not sure if Inventor can handle cost calculations with $ units....it should since the parameters can be linked in Excel, but not sure the best way to handle it.
If it is an I-part you should be able to put a formula in for the cost parameter, but I haven't tried it before. Sean has some tutorials on dealing with this type of thing on his web site (and a discussion forum also)
The unit are built in. You can define units based on others (like a square in = in*in) but there is not an ini file. BTW, INI files pretty much died a few years ago. Now everything is kept in the registry or XML files.
