Saving Design Tables

You can save design tables directly in the SolidWorks software.

To save a design table:

  1. In a document with a design table, do one of the following:
    • Select Design Table in the ConfigurationManager, then click File > Save As.
    • Right-click Design Table in the ConfigurationManager and select Save Table.

    The Save Design Table dialog box appears.

  2. Type a File name, then click Save.

    The design table is saved as an Excel file (*.xls).

    Due to a Microsoft limitation, changes to linked design tables may not be saved if they contain values that are linked to other spreadsheets. To save the design table, you can:
    • Remove the linked values from the design table
    • Clear Link to file in the Design Table PropertyManager to unlink the design table from the model
