    make a hyperbolic shape in solidworks

    Hi, supernova1387: This geometry is doable in Solidworks. If you section the geometry, along planes parallel to either YZ or ZX direction, you will get ellipses. Solidworks has "Partial Ellipse" or "Ellipse" command which allow you to create ellipses. You can then create your surface through...

    swVBAServer has stopped working (SW2010, Sp. 5.0)

    Hi, I tried a repair. It still has the same problem. I googled swVBAServer and found some discussion on it related to virus. Not sure if it is a virus. Best regards, Alex

    swVBAServer has stopped working (SW2010, Sp. 5.0)

    Hi, Something happened to my Solidworks recently. Now, I can not use any Macro. Whenever I try to run a macro, the following message appears: "swVBAServer has stopped working." I talked to my VAR, and did not get a solution. Do you folks know what may cause this problem? Best regards...

    "Save As" an assembly and parts with equation

    Hi, Deepak: So, you have the same issue. It seems a bug. I am requesting a SPR via VAR with this issue. Equations that are tied to file names do get updated during P&G with file name changes. Best regards, Alex

    Mass properties differ in assembly and parts

    Hi, coolio63: Could you post your assembly models with components? Discrepanies in mass are not very likely. Best regards, Alex

    SolidWorks API

    Hi, Bingo123: "Sub main" is a startup form to an application. It seems that you do not have this startup form. Normally, a VB project can have many forms (windows), and developers need to specify which form that you want to assign the startup form. It also seem swApp object is not defined...

    Gutter System - Design Table?

    Hi, btbulldog: I did not see your typical "assemblies" so I do not know complexity of your "asemblies". It sounds your "assembly" is actually more of a part than an "assembly". If I were you, I would use a part for what you are trying to achieve. You really do not need either DriveWorks or...

    SolidWorks API

    Hi, Bingo123: You will need to use swApp.OpenDoc(?) method. Please search "Open Document Silently Example" under Solidworks API help menu. Alternatively, you can use "Shell" command, which can open any type of documents as long as there is associated application in your system. You do not...
