im running solidworks 2017 and for some reason the "tooling split" function is greyed out? i used to use this function frequently and now its just not ever available? did i do something to change its settings?

kevin,
thanks for the reply. I dont have a specific file, anytime i load solidworks the 'tooling split' button is greyed out and i am unable to perform this. i have used it many times in the past to split objects for making molds and for the past few months ive noticed it just doesnt come up. even if i just extrude a block and try to use it it still wont work. the button is greyed out. i feel like there was a way to turn certain tools off and on?
Not really a mold tool expert...
But i believe you need a parting surface for the tooling split to be enable?
Please post some images of your issue.
