Summary


Details

--------------- 
When MS Excel is not installed on the same workstation as NX, it's not possible 
to select PDW or MDW components from Reuse Library.



Solution

It works when setting XESS as "Default Spreadsheet Application" in Customer 
Defaults-Gateway-General, tab "Spreadsheet".


Then all Mold Wizard and Progressive Die Wizard libraries can be used via 
Reuse Library.


Keep in mind that Excel is required when you need to modify the database to 
introduce your own catalogs.
