Toolbox Fastener Problems

Jan 06, 2004 2 Replies

I work on assemblies at home from time to time and then take them to work. When I open the assemblies at work several of my fasteners change in size and I have to edit them one at a time to restore them to their intended size. Working in 2001Plus. Is there anything that can be done to prevent this?



Thanks, Terry Robb


I assume because your not copying the entire assembly (fasteners and all) when you go to work. I believe toolbox leaves inserted fasteners in folder in it's program folder. Therefore when SW opens your assembly, it's opening fasteners you created for another assembly some time ago. You need to click the reference box when doing a saveas and check the fasteners also.

Take a copy of the "working" toolbox parts folder "back" and "forth", assuming no one else is accessing that folder at work
