I am not being shown the option of solid geometry in references of toroidal bend.

I have creo parametric 7.0.

Since Creo 7.0 introduced multibody modeling, the option "Solid Geometry" in Toroidal Bend has been replaced with the collector "Quilts and/or solid body", which is shown in your screenshot. So now, instead of clicking "Solid Geometry" to apply Toroidal Bend to all solid geometry in the model, you need to activate the collector and pick the body you want apply the bend to (you may select only one solid body).

You expect a solid geometry option when creating a toroidal bend and it is not offered. you're disappointed. 

In order to clarify your expectations attaching the model shown in the picture will be well appreciated.

So I believe a toroidial bend is a "modification" to existing geometry, You are not creating new geometry, you are changing what is existing.

Try looking at a youtube tutorial.
