Hey Gang,

I am receiving some strange error message from Solidworks 2008. The error message is trying to tell me something, but everything is written in a different language (Chinese I believe). The only text in English is says that an Invalid argument was encountered. Has any one else experienced this message?

We are using SP4. I selected parts in an assembly and wanted to form a new sub assembly
 
I tried again and it works. It seems that there are a few bugs yet in Solidworks 2008. I hope things have improved with the 2009 version.
 
I have the same message pop up now and again (just english though). It happens when I am opening a part file from an assembly. I typically use the rmb/face select/pop-up memu so I'm not certain if it happens when selecting the part from the tree. The part file opens with the DimExpert Manager tab selected although I never exit a part file with that tab showing.

I am on SW SP4.0 and XP SP3, I just haven't updated my signature.
