macros not appearing in tools>customize>menus-categories
hi all,
i've downloaded a few really useful macro files. i want to assign shortcut keys and i'm following the help files:
"to assign a macro to a shortcut key:
with a document open, click tools, customize, keyboard.
select macros in categories.
if macros is not listed, you must create a macro folder and record a macro in your solidworks installation directory, as described in the first procedure".
i've created a folder in the data folder in program files>solidworks.... and copied the macros in here. macros isn't listed in the categories area though. what next?
god bless,
phil.

have you called the folder "macro" or "macros", i make the mistake of calling the folder "macro" originally and sw would not recognize it.
