This may be a slight departure... But I'm wondering if any of y'all...
This'll be my first time - just wondering what to expect.
I can say "Y'all" 'cause I'm from TN

I'm originally from TN - been in central WI for 4 years.
I still get to say "y'all" though, it's in the blood.
So who's goin' to this "barn dance"?
RE: This may be a slight departure... B
How was the conference? Did Y'all get anything out of it?

We saw SolidWorks 2003.
There will be some rudimentary finite element analysis & animation tools built-in.
Many of the regular tools have been improved.
I'm looking forward to it.
We're going to try to convince management to buy into the Smarteam PDM package - because of what we learned.
It was well worth the cost and time to go.

We think Smartools could replace it and run the database we already invested time and $$$.
PDMWorks is our fall-back plan if we can't sell managemant on Smarteam.
As I recall, Smarteam is 100% seamless with 2003. It basically adds another tab to the feature manager, just like any other add-on pacjage.
