Saving Design Tables

You can save design tables directly in SOLIDWORKS.

To save a design table:

  1. In a document with a design table, do one of the following:
    • Select Excel Design Table in the ConfigurationManager: CAD Family tab or the ConfigurationManager tab, then click File > Publish.
    • Right-click Excel Design Table in the ConfigurationManager: CAD Family tab or the ConfigurationManager tab and select Save Table.
  2. Enter a File name, then click Publish.
    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.
