I'm looking for a way to correct descriptions on several thousand toolbox parts in our copied parts folder. Over the past 13 years toolbox we've had many issues with toolbox and I'm on a mission to clean the files up.
I've corrected exported fastener lists to excel, put in proper descriptions, and brought the lists back into toolbox. Now I need to correct existing data.
I thought I would use the Update Toolbox Components but it inconsistently shows up on the menu and I've noticed it actually changing parts out in the assembly.
I thought, I have a list of files and a list of descriptions. I just need a way to step through the list editing each file.
Has anyone created a similar macro?
I'm taking a look at https://forum.solidworks.com/message/940696 Batch Custom Properties to see what it does.
