    Archiving MasterCAM files with PDM Professional (EPDM)

    Does anybody have experience with controlling MasterCAM files with PDM Pro? Looking for a procedure to implement. I'm thinking about adding the MasterCAM file as a refernce to the model so that it travels through our CAD workflow. When the model is revised, the CAM file is locked down and a...

    previewCFG.sldprt

    What is your reasoning behind not upgrading? The toolbox is being upgraded at the same time that the vault is.

    previewCFG.sldprt

    Performing an upgrade from SW2010 to SW2011 and am occasionally receiving an error message on this file - previewCfg.sldprt. It's a Toolbox-Drop File Error; has invalid dimensions. Can anyone elaborate on this? See attached bmp. Thanks, Dan

    macro for SW revision table

    Thanks for your reply. I'm surprised considering the revision table is excel based, or at least it seems that way.

    macro for SW revision table

    Hi, I'm trying to record a macro to modify our revision table that resides in our drawing template in the sheet environment. The macro is simple: change a column's attribute and then move its position, however, when I play the macro, nothing changes. What have I missed? Thanks.

    EDrawings 2006

    Does anybody know where I can obtain a copy of the freeware EDrawings 2006 version? (It's a compatibility issue and the SW site only has the 2009 version) Thanks in advance

    PDMWorks web viewer

    Hi, we have PDMWorks web viewer installed for the non SW users on our site. It houses SW files and legacy ACAD files. We are normally able to open the ACAD files from the web portal which executes our local acad application, however, now when we try, Internet Explorer opens another html window...

    multiple lines in the custom properties?

    Hi, In my custom properties there is a Designer field. Sometimes one designer is required to be entered below another. What is the symbol to use to add an extra line below? I thought it was the carriage return symbol between names but I can't seem to make that work. Thanks in advance.

    "Document Manager Library invalid"

    One of our clients is experiencing this error message every time they execute the 2006 PDMW stand alone client utility. Any suggestions as to how to cure this problem? Thanks. "Document Manager Library invalid please see your PDMW administrator"

    PDMWorks search

    probably no solution to this, but does anybody know if you can change the highlight colour of search results in PDMWorks 2006? When we search for files, the results are highlighted with a light grey which makes it virtually impossible to see. Thank you in advance. D

    Archiving advice

    Hi all, The company I work for has recently migrated from AutoCAD to SolidWorks with PDMWorks as our designated archiving system. In the past we used a version of AMWorkflow (Cyco) to archive ACAD files which is now becoming obsolete. That repository holds approximately 20,000 ACAD files and...

    SW 2006 Toolbox is not the expected version.

    yes, they are all setup to share from a common location. It turns out that his local file is already 10.21. If I change it to 10.19 it still works. The error message when trying to use the network file states 10.19 is expected. It is odd that there is no such complaint from the local file. I may...

    SW 2006 Toolbox is not the expected version.

    Thanks, but what about simply changing the user's mdb from 10.19 to 10.21? I'll upgrade the sp; however, I didn't think that would be related.
