Im lost right now, want to know if anyone can help.
I have a model with over 22 different configerations for 1 size of product. I would like to con't to add the remainder of the configerations for the remaining 6 sizes of product.
Is thier a way to create a table where by the user can select the product size then the configeration required (based on width) and pull that model into a assembly? Thank You in advance
Not to be redundant, but sounds like a job for a macro. You could write it yourself if you like or employ someone ;^) to do it for you.

Not redundant at all. However, the table will eventually have 12 parent components, with each parent having sub configurations. The selection process will be done in order to bring in all of the components in order to built the required assembly model.
How/where do you begin to record a macro to do this??
Knowledge of VB or another programming language helps
Well if you record the insertion of one of the parts you can see what SW needs to insert a part. The less clicks you do while recording the better. Then open the code and try to figure out what VB code SW uses to insert your part. Then play it to be sure what SW wrote will work again. You should be able to figure out where to put the FileLocation string and the Configuration string. Once you have that figured out all you have to do is build a form to get the user selections.
