Broken Toolbox

New member
Hey all,



Question - we design, here at my company, around a central server where
all the files are located, however, our Solidowrks Toolbox pulls part
files from our individual C:\ drives, so when a coworker opens an
assembly, all the Hardware links are incorrect and the wrong size of
nuts and bolts get inserted into the assembly.



Is there any way to correct this?

Tim,


You need to open the Toolbox.ini and change the ToolboxPartFolder to point to the network location. Something lilke this:


ToolboxPartFolder=e:\drawings\2004-solidworks\toolbox parts\


Hope this helps.
