Solid Edge Cannot register ISOtable as custom bend formula

Summary


Details

Registering a custom bend formula is not working. When applying the custom 
formula will show an error stating "bend equation Automation object is not 
registered. Using neutral factor settings". This also happens when using the 
default ISOtable in the custom folder.



Solution

Using the examples in C:\Program Files\Solid Edge 
ST*\Custom\sheetmetal\ISOTable\bin\


and using "Register.bat" in the same folder will cause this problem.


Looking at "Register.bat":


%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\regasm /codebase 
bin\ISOTable.dll 
%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\regasm /tlb bin\ISOTable.dll


This will show a wrong path to ISOTable.dll. You have to delete "bin\" in both 
lines. Then registering will work, and applying the formula in Solid Edge will 
also work. The same applies in "UnRegister.bat"


Alternatively you can use "RegisterSample.exe", which interactively asks you to 
register or unregister.
