I have a sample Solid Edge v18 model of a "telephone extension cable" that I am willing to send to you. You can look at the feature tree to see how it was modeled.

Try running the SECleanupAll.exe in the ..\SptTools\SECleanup folder on your SE v17 CD's.

With only the Select Tool active, try the SmartSelect icon (arrow w/ lightning bolt) on the Ribbon Bar.
This allows you to select one element and find all similar elements or the same type, those residing on the same layer, the same color, etc.
You can then use Edit - Properties to change...
Edit the seacad.ini file. When you select File - Open on a DXF or DWG file, select the Options button at the bottom of the Open File dialog box.
This opens a wizard that guides you through most of the options available in the seacad.ini file. Once you make the necessary changes and save your...
