SolidWorks 2008 to 2007
SolidWorks 2008 to 2007
(OP)
I have Solidworks 2008 at work and 2007 at home. Sometimes I like to cut short my day at the office and finish whatever project I am on at home. The problem I have is when I try to open a part or drawing file on my 2007 version it says the file was created on a future version of Solidworks and cannot open it. Does anyone know if there is a way to bypass this?

How about an enhancement request for this forum -
A scrolling list of the most common questions, just like the "WHITE PAPERS" list.
This could minimize some pain and suffering.
