    I am not familiar with the most current versions of Acad. The
    separate command is for disjointed solids (two solids that are not
    physically connected, but were created as one object). I've used a
    command called "Slice" which will divide into two parts defined by a
    plane. (but there were problems with it on version 2002)

    A final option is to copy the solid, and then create a box (or other
    solid) that covers the area you want removed. Then you can SUBTRACT
    the box from one, and UNION the box from the copy.

  3. Thanks Joe, in fact I have found out there there are no way out once we
    exited the drawing as the two solids will remains so unless we do what
    you are talking about here.
