Part I replaced in the assembly keeps using the same old part! Why?

Ernie Lorenzo Feb 23, 2015 1:18 PM

I replaced the part “hex slotted nut_ai” with NAS509-10. And saved the
assembly. But when I reopen the assembly, there is an issue and it reverts
back to the part file “hex slotted nut_ai". Is there a problem with the attached nut files?

The part file “hex slotted nut_ai". is in my computer hard drive C:\SolidWorks Data\browser\Ansi Inch\nuts\hex slotted.

The part file "NAS509-10" is on the company's server network.

It would be helpful if you explain what you mean by, "there is an issue."

Ernie,

Is your NAS509-10 part a toolbox fastener which has been edited and saved to the server? If so, there are two possible solutions, depending on how your system is set up.
