I think I would happily pay for all toolbox structural steel profiles converted to lib features for weldment use

Or wait, maybe solidworks should pay someone to do that and then give it to me!

I thought this would have been done already since I purchased the toolbox add-on.

How long has it been since the content of TB was added to, or the functionality significantly changed?

Also, if you browse the strutural steel profiles in sw2006, find what you want, click create in an empty part 50% of the time it is unable to apply the correct parameters and just draws the base sketch of the profile type. I've had to close sw and restart or at least start a different new part and then PRESTO it starts working. Alternative is to drag it out of the toolbox as a solid part then delete the extrude and convert to a valid weldment profile. FUN!!!!!! Again, I would honestly pay someone to write a macro to do this for me (and then I'd send the bill to SW!!:))

I'll go halves on the cost.
