Hi all, I know similar questions to this have been asked before, but I haven't been able to find an answer that solves my specific problem.
Generally at my work the part numbering is pretty good- the only time I get the "part number conflicts error" is when I'm overlaying two different releases of the same assembly. So the customer sends us a model, we're making that- then they send us another and I'd like to see what the change is, so I create a (temporary) product and insert the two assemblies. I never save this product, I just look around and compare the differences between the two assemblies.
Is there a macro that will automatically re-name the parts on insertion? Or another way of doing this? It gets to be a bit of a pain when I have to re-name 50-100 parts for no reason!
Cheers
Simon
