Hi wsylvester,<B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />[/B]


thanks for the help,


I tried to add the parameters in relations as link shows (<B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">http://www.eng-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=1132[/B]) but the problem is that we will not be able to edit/modify in the parameter in drawing/model directly, we have to edit in relations only. If you double click on the parameter cell in the drawing you can do edit/modify the value if the parameter is not driven by relations. Can you please suggest me any other way to do this task. <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">[/B]

you need to delete the relation .. it will thenremain as a parameter





make sense?

Raghu,


Spoke too soon, it doesn't seem to work like it did in r2001...inWF it doesn't let you edit it even after deleteing the relation... then is now a locked access iocn on it..I'll try with the old inteface and see if it will work


will have to get back to you on that

In WF2, you need to delete the relation & verify the relations. This will free the parameter from lock.

Raghu,


okay whatseems to work... read in your values into the relations editor


click the execute/verify icon.. far right has a green check mark on it


then delete what you read in from your file.. and click the execute/verify icon again


that will remove the locked icon off the parameter and you can now edit from parameter table or model tree if you make it visible there


hope that works for you

yeah .. robertlb.. doesn't seem to go unless you execute/verify again


after deleteing..just how many more mouse clicks can they get into WF
