How do you convertthe old Holes.txt hole table to the new database style?



Solution

Hole database converter is used for legacy hole databases (holes.txt, 
threads.txt), and a holes database converter is provided. These two legacy 
databases are written to a new hole database file and are located in the 
../Program Files/Solid Edge ST10/Preferences/Holes folder. Solid Edge only 
recognizes the hole databases that are contained in this folder. 

Note: Make sure the decimal point symbol of the values in the text file 
matches the system decimal point. The values will be converted incorrectly if 
the symbols do not match


The Hole Database Converter is located in the C:\Program Files\Solid Edge 
ST10\Custom\HoleDatabaseConverter\bin directory. Once in there you can run the 
Hole Database Converter.exe and specify the text file to convert.
