I  am sure someone can help me with this problem, as it doesn't eem difficult to me, yet I'm stuck.  I have a door assembly that it used in a classroom setting, the frame comes fully assembled.  I think I have the door width, frams and glass width set corrrectly, but I want the large frame (mullion) member to be flexible.  Sometimes we have a 6" partition framed to it, other times its an 8" partition.  I need the flexibility in this piece, the full frame will always be 5'-0" (1.5" frame, 3' door, 1.5" frame, 19.5" glass, 1.5" frame).

 Can someone help me with this and explain where I went wrong?  Family editing is not my strong suit.Thanks in advance.

Looks to me like you going to have to make two referance planes and tie each side, side of the mullion profiles to them. Then put a parameter on the two ref planes that way you can adjust the width of the frames. That is what you are trying to do correct?? You will also need to make sure that the glass and door are locked to the center (or wherever you want them) that way if you adjust the width of the mullions the glass and door will move accordingly.
