    I've got a file (assembly) from an outside source and when I open it in SW it is
    about 1/10th the proper size. Is there anyway to scale it up?

    Thanks, Joseph

    Hi Joseph

    You can not scale an assembly, You have to scale the parts one by one,
    unless You save the whole assy to a part and then scale it up. Go to
    Insert, Features, Scale. Note that this will only add a feature at the
    end of the tree and You'll be able to go back again to the original
    file by supressing or deleting the scale feature.
