where is "Linear Sketch and Repeat Tool" command?

[skiwindsurf]

Newcomer, in deep trouble.

I am using solidworks 2006, just went thru the hell to install it and make it work. One tutorial shows the usage of "Linear Sketch and Repeat Tool", but I can't find this command anywhere in the software, help, please!

Do you know how to add a tool icon to your toolbar? It's probably not there, you need to add it.
RMB anywhere in a grey area between toolbars, go to bottom and select "customize", go to "commands" tab, go to sketch, find the "Linear Sketch and Repeat Tool" icon, drag it to the sketch toolbar.

Tools > Sketch Tools > Linear Sketch Step and Repeat Tool.
The icon is a group of 9 squares arranged in a 3x3 pattern & should be in the b[]Sketch[/b] toolbar, but if it isn't, RMB click on an unused area of the toolbar, then select Customize > Commands and drag & drop any missing icons into their respective toolbars. Each toolbar has to be open to be able to drop new icons into it, so you will have to close the "Customize > Commands" then change the toolbar then re-open it for each.
