does anyone know if it is possible to edit a custom profile for aweldment after the part is completed and get the part to regeneratewith the edited profile. it seems to read the profile only when thepart is first made and not regenerate if profile ischanged

Thanks

You can edit the profile but as Tim K pointed out it is not parametric. You can however edit the Structural Member feature in your model and "replace" it with your modified version. Depending on how you modified the profile, you may or may not cause the internal ID of the feature to change which could cause errors in features built off the one you replaced.

edit profile (in weldment library), save.
in part, edit structural member in question.
de-select sketch segments(s).
re-select sketch segments.

Will, I believe the profile is only loaded when you first created the weldment and it is not parametric. You can edit the sketch of each structural member individually but this might be a bit of a pain depending on how many features you have. Good luck.
