Easy way to add ALL Toolbox Structural to Weldments

Hi,

Is there a process of copying ALL the Toolbox Structural shapes to the Weldments/Structural Member dialog (ansi inch-iso/type/size) ?

It seems like these two database should be the same but yet the Weldments dialog has only a sample of sizes and shapes.

I like using what weldments has to offer, i.e. it is faster, than creating parts with toolbox. And from what I can see you cannot add welds, gussets, etc. to the parts when you make the assembly from those parts created by the toolbox? I may be incorrect...

Anyway, I need to have them ALL added not just a few, so the process would have to be either automated or not very time consuming due to the different part profiles.

Thanks,

Aron SW2007, SP2.2

If you are using 2007 go to the Solidworks content in the design library. There is a folder there for weldments that has all of the structural shapes you will need.
