    Dear all[/FONT][FONT=Arial],

    How can I change the unit between Imperial and Matric in Blength Table (Bolt length Table)?
    Thank you in advance.

    Standard lengths for purchasing Imperial and Metric bolts  are different and you cannot convert and get a match.
    You should create separate length Tables for each in PDMS.

    The Bolting units is controlled and set up in Isodraft Options file. Ex;

    BOLT UNIT METimp
                  METric
                  IMPerial
                  DEFault

    Ref. page 2-23 Isodraft Ref. man.

    But how can you output the correct term for the metric bolts? I sure want M16. But Isodraft provides me with 16 MM. I haven't found any clues to solving this..
