The new option is “Save new components to external files”. If selected, SolidWorks prompts you to name and save new in-context components to external files, like it used to prior to SolidWorks 2008. If cleared, saves new in-context components in the assembly file as virtual components. I can go on and on about Virtual components and how useful they are, but I will save that for another post.
