Importing models from SolidWorks 2009?
Importing models from SolidWorks 2009?
(OP)
SEwST apparently can't import a native SW09 file (at least it couldn't when I tried it) -probably because SW09 came out after SEwST was released.
So what is the best alternative format? Parasolid?
Thanks,
Pat

Added bonus if you share files by email: the Parasolid file is much smaller than the combined batch of files needed for an assembly.

Assemblies tend to be more problematic than parts no matter what software you use.
Do make sure you're opening them as an assy not a part. Also sometimes they'll come in as faces, there are options related to processing them this way though it has limitations.
