Modifying a Parametric Standard Part Contained in a Catalog

This task explains how to modify a catalog containing parametric parts delivered with the product.

Since V5R5 SP3, we no more use CSV files to create the EndChapters of the MechanicalStandardParts Catalogs

Complete or modify an existing parts family .

Complete or modify an existing DesignTable (located in the sub-directory Design_Tables)

Launch a CATIA session.

Select the Tools-> Macro command to run the macro EN_EndChapters.CATScript (for EN) located in the sub-directory VBScript .

The dialog box that appears displays the following:

	Path of the models directory: path of the sub-directory Models
	Path of the catalog output directory: path of the directory where the catalog documents will be created

You can modify the default paths in the CATScript document according to you install.

If you want to add a new family:

Create the parametric CATPart.

Create the design table as follows:

	First column: PartNumber
	Second column: PartName

Complete the script EN_EndChapters.CATScript (for EN) with your family, remove the others and run the macro.

Complete the main chapters description of you catalog.

Edit an existing CSV file (located in the sub-directory CSV) or create a new one.

Edit the script EN.CATScript, complete it with your new Chapter and run it.
