Hi,
I know that SE can open SW file.
But if SW files have configurations inside, how and what SE open and convert this files ?
Exist a procedure to avoid to lose SolidWorks configuration ?  

Thank you...

Possibly the active configuration ?

bc.
2.4GHz Core2 Quad, 4GB RAM,
Quadro FX4600.

Where would we be without sat-nav?

BC is correct, the active configuration is exported.
No intelligence is carried across.  It is just like opening a STEP file i.e. dumb solid.

So I need a macro to export each SW configuration in a single file.
Thank you.

Thank you...
