Re: Assembly to Part
Try exporting it as a different type of file, then importing it back into, lets say a new sketch in a new part. You may not even have to export it as something different at all. If you're confused as to what I'm saying, just message me and I'll get back to you tonight when I'm actually sitting in front of the program.

EDIT: Turns out this works (I tried it on inventor 8 though). You have to export the assembly as an IGES, then import it into a sketch. When the part imports, it'll be just the faces in a clear yellow shell, but it's the assembly in a part. It also may cause the computer to run really slow depending on the amount of ram and visual memory you have.
