creating a part from an assembly
i used to use solidedge often and there was a command named "part copy" that would create a part from an assembly. the part would behave just like an imported solid, i.e. no parametric features. is there a similar command for solidworks?
sorry if there is a thread that handles this already. its difficult performing searches for phrases like part copy

if what you want is to save an assembly as a part, then it is that simple, select saveas and change the .sldasm to .sldprt (selectable in the drop down).

you might give "speedpak" a try for this. on the "configurations" tab right click on the configuration you want to save as a part and select "add speedpak". i think it may be better than the "save as" route.

please start a new thread for your question. tacking your question onto an existing and totally unrelated one, makes for confusing threads.
