Family table issue

Hi all,


Suppose that you have a assembly with 3 components A,B,C. 2 of the 3 are identical so we can write B=C. Futhermore, suppose that B and C are "put" on A in a different location.


Now you want to have two sub-assemblies like this for example: A and B, A and C. Family table seems to be a good wayto make the sub-assemblies regarding the previous assembly which have been already created.


When i do this in pro/E, the software doesn't make the difference between B and C (the have the same name in pro/E) so in the two sub-assemblies, B AND C are present. Is there a way to avoid that? I guess that in changing the name this issue won't give my any problem.. But is there any other way?


Any help would be grateful


Best Regards


Dutrieux
