I have a library of manufactuer generated casework families that is very very complex but very good. I need to know what is the best way to learn how to manipulate/edit these families. Should my company invest in some Revit training? Is there somewhere online that give a great overview of complex families? I can create basic families on my own but these are way over my head with muliple if/thens/or/ands and complex formulas. Thanks in advance for any help.

If these are really complex families, then you may have a lot of trouble modifying them.  Do you really need to?  There are good AWWI Casework families on the Autodesk seek site.

Start learning with the "Families Guide" on the Autodesk site.

These families are specifically laboratory casework. I'm trying to get this library to match another manufacturer's standard line. There are so many useful toggles/parameters that is easier to use this library and figure out how to edit them then to use the other manufacturer and have to load 20+ seperate families instead of just one if that makes sense.
