【转帖】inserting and mating parts in an assembly
 

inserting and mating parts in an assembly
pre-select the componets in the assembly.
then have the macro loop through each componet selected searching for specific hole wizard features then when found insert and mate a pin to each...
i got to the part to where i need to get the face or loop thru faces in the hole wizard feature.

and now? what do you want mate?

thanks for the input, i've added a few of the changes you gave me. then tested the macro and inserted the fasteners just fine if only one componet is selected in the assemby. seems to be loosing the selected componets after the fastners are added to the assembly for the first componet selected.
i really appreciate the help....

ok - i had a few successes and setbacks.
the macro searches the selected componet in the assembly for cbored features then loops thru each turning the face blue that i want to mate the screw with.
then inserts the screw and performs the same action turning the face blue that i want to mate.
i can't figure out how to select the faces (which are blue) then mate them.
i've tried many different combinations with no sucess.
what am i doing wrong?
(this online forum is wonderful) - thanks in advance
