I have an assembly of a building with a tank inside of the building. I am trying to slide the tank in and out of the door to see if the tank will be able to fit through the door. How should I go about donig this?? Thanks so much,

One of the easiest things to do is "underconstrain" the tank within your assembly by not including a constraint on the direction in which you would like the tank to slide. Then you can use the Drag Packaged Component Icon to slide it smoothly to any position you wish. If you already have it fully constrained, you can Redefine it and temporarily Disable the appropriate constraint.
