Thanks. I have our IT department installing and older version to try. According to SolidWorks this should work.
I will also check out the other site you mentioned.
Thanks for the reply.

Has there been discussion of a 3D parametric part generator plug-in for nerwer versions of Solidworks, ie. SW2008
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

This is probably a basic question that shouldn't have to be asked. When we open any drawing .SLDDRW the date that appears in the title block is the date it was opened or printed and not the date it was created. If we we save the open file, the date is changed to the current date. Can someone...
Thanks everyone! Your replies reinforce my believe that our problems won't go away with a different software package, in fact they will multiply! I will post a new thread detailing the file structure so it can be disected.
Thanks again!

Let me start by saying I have been using SW since the release of SW2005 and have been very happy. My company has just hired a new manager over the engineering department who seems to think all of our problems could be solved by switching over to SolidEdge. I am asking for opinions from people...
I am not sure if this is the right place to post but I will try anyway. The company I work for is in need of someone to do rapid prototyping sometime referred to as 3D printing for us. If anyone has a suggestion I would greatly appreciate any leads.
Thanks in advance

I work in a company that has several seats of SW 2007. We all have access to the same files on a server. Is there a way to tell when a drawings has been modified and who modified it?? I think it is in the set up of templates but can't find it.
Any help would be appreciated.
We make door panels of all different sizes and configs. I know there is a way to make a layout sketch in an assembly and then insert each part of the door and have the length of each component driven by the layout sketch. Can someone point me in the right direction. We want to have an openening...
Is there a way that you can create a dimensioned drawing (DWG) from a part in SW that can have multiple layers in the drawing that can be turned on or off as needed. For instance. We create die drawings that are sent to our extruding company. They may require certain dimensions for what they do...
I am using SW2007 and am working on an aluminum extrusion sketch that is a library feature to be inserted into a weldment later. The sketch has three profiles along the base that are identical. I am trying to get the sketch fully defined without have a gadgillion dimensions on the sketch. Is...
Does anyone know what rules apply when trying to simulate motion in an assembly within an assembly. What I have is an assembly with mates that has been inserted into another assembly. When I try to add motion it won't move. Do I need to establish the motion in the first assembly before adding it...
We had immported an Autocad Drawing and that is when we ran into the problem. We found if we exported the registry keys from a machine that was not affected back to the affected machine it took care of the problem. Thanks anyway. We just found this fix.
