Assemblies Lose Design Table Configurations - Please Help!

Every time I try to open an assembly involving a part with SW design tables the assembly crashes, citing missing configurations. UNLESS I open the part with the design tables first.

Is this something that has happened to anyone else and is there a way to fix it? It's extremely annoying. I've never had this problem with any other kind of configuration.

Thank you!
