Link Material

I have created a large assembly with a number of subassemblies. The parts of the sub assemblies will share materialproperties.

The material properties of the part are unknown, but I do know thatthe parts will share the same material.

I have created custom materials (and will adjust the properties ofthe material, when they are determined) and I have tried the "LinkMaterial" button on the Material Property Manager Page of the subassemblies. This has not been successful using SW 2007 x64 SP 2.1.

I tried it on SW 2007 SP1.0 and the "Link Material" functionworked.

Has anybody else encountered this or have any suggestions on how toovercome this?

Thanks
