I found an update to WDS on the web, it allows the indexing of mapped network drives, the only thing is, it's STILL not doing what it's supposed to do! The performance is sluggish at best. We have had solidworks for over a month, and we still cannot use solidworks explorer! Solidworks `08 S.P01...

SW explorer '08 does not work with network drives or directories over the network in my own experience. We have had NO luck in getting explorer to work, as for the VAR, well, once you pay the money... Solidworks `08 S.P0.1 Core 2 duo 6850 2GB 800Mhz RAM ATI FIRE GL V3350 Videocard 320GB SATAII...

The specs in my signature are my CURRENT/NEW hardware setup. I do not have any part in the installation of new software within this company. Our VAR came in last week and diagnosed our setup without solving the problem. After I changed the permissions/attributes of my files some of them were...

Hi there! We have installed SWX `08 on brand new hardware. Converted all our old SWX 2005 files using SWX converion wizard. Opened various assemblies discovering that they now had mate errors (when they were saved in SWX 2005 they were fine) Also some of the parts in said assemblies were...

Sorry, Should have explained. We have an "IT manager", much like many other "IT managers", a bit hit and miss. I am CCNA qualified and know my networks, alas, I am not permitted admin priv. as I am only employed as a draughtsman with this company. The VAR had people in here on 3 occasions, no...

We do not keep our SW files on the companys server because when we did, we were getting a `failed to save' error.

Hi folks, We have three seats of 2008 and no PDM works. We have to store our SW files somewhere but not on the main server computer. Currently they are stored on one of the SW PCs, this is not ideal as performance is very degraded. A USB external hard disk drive is not an option as this is...

I had looked at the help, as had my manager. I could not search the knowledge base as there has been a recurring error with my login on SW side. Solidworks S.S.D.D

Got it, Tools, options, document properties, detailing, `Alternate section display'.

When creating sections in drawings, the arrows appear, but the section line is missing.

I have to avoid widescreen TFTs, as my IT manager says that Autocad 2005 will appear `stretched' is this true?

Hi, We are upgrading to SW2008. Therefore we are getting a hardware upgrade; Core 2 6750 250GB SATA2 2GB 800Mhz RAM Intel MOBO ATI V3350 PCI-E WINXP SP2 Still looking for a TFT Monitor, we have been using 21"CRTs, need a 21" or 22" TFT (NOT WIDESCREEN) for under £200 Any suggestions on the...

Hi, Does anyone know if there is a international standard for these valves?

Thanks for the setup info. Just one thing, when we stored our SW files on a server, we were receiving the message `failed to save'. We tried many things to resolve this to no avail. We called in our VAR, they sent out network `experts', they could not provide a network solution. The last thing...
