I need some more types of ISO hex screws that are not currently available in
TOOLBOX.

Is there an update for the screw library or website where I can add bolts?
Or do I have to model them from scratch an add them?

SolidMech has a free library including several types of ISO hex head
screws. What exactly are you looking for?

Another possibility is to look them up in McMaster-Carr's web site and see
if they have models available.

I've never heard of a content update for TB. I don't use it, so I may have
missed it.

Which is the best format to use? STL, IGES, DXF, Parasolid?

I would like to clarify that I am not a user of SolidWorks ToolBox. Though
I still use the original CimLogic ToolBox (i.e. SolidWorks purchased
CimLogic) for AutoCAD when necessary.

File type to use depends upon what you are trying to accomplish. For
SolidWorks I prefer STEP or Parasolid and avoid IGES whenever possible. I'm
not that faimiliar with using STL for anything but outputing for rapid
prototype applications. The only time that I use DXF is for importing
Autocad 2D files.
