File Sizes in SW 2007
File Sizes in SW 2007
(OP)
We recently upgraded to SW2007 from the 2005 version and I've notice that the file sizes are larger.
For example I'll open a SW2005 part and save it in SW2007 and the file will be larger.

I have neither seen nor heard of the new hot fix from MS, but am running the 922668 without any known problems.
I was able to download the hot fix from http://ho
Hopefully MS will announce a permanent solution very soon.

We got the hotfix from Microsoft (had to call them directly and refrence the SPR from SolidWorks), and have now noted between 50 -90% reduction in file sizes. That's with SP1.1 (I have 2.0ev on my machine, but haven't installed the hotfix yet)
Microsoft still hasn't released it as a general update since they're not 100% (or 50%?) done with testing it.
I'll add more if we discover problems and whatnot with it

File size is excessive (25 mb) and does not shrink with save-as. Similar and more complex parts are much smaller (5 mb). - you can find this at www.solidworks.com and look at their knowledge base
