Hi
I am working with solidworks 2009 and when i configure hole wizard and sign in and set up a custom file ,when I add a tapped hole M105×2.0 to the list and save it. The save doe’s not work and when I re-open hole configure it has disapeared.
After trying evry option I can think off for a conciderable time I wondered if any one could point me in the right direction.
Thanks jason

What are you signing in to?
After creating the custom database, did you set the File Locations to look in the place it was saved?

To make a custom hole feature, go to options/ system options / hole wizard-toolbox / Configure.
this takes you to toolbox setup .
Click on please log in
create password and log in
Take option 1 (Select Hardware)
Pick a standard and click copy standard (2 folder symbals in same pane)
enter standard name and click the tick
wait for custom folder to be saved
take option 2 (customize your hardware)
click your custom folder/hole wizard holes/tapped holes/tapped holes
at the top of list of threads click “+” which adds new row
add new thread size and click save
but does not save .
this is really bugging me as I don,t like to give up.

I don’t have Toolbox so maybe that’s why I don’t have to log in. I also have full admin rights to my system, maybe your permissions do not allow writing to the database?
I’m able to create new HW sizes within a custom standard.
