What is the best way to export Pro/E models so that they can be opened up in SolidWorks? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Pro/ENGINEER Files
The Add-In module SldTrans 1.0 imports a part or assembly file from Pro/ENGINEER into a SolidWorks part or assembly document. The attributes, features, sketches, and dimensions of the Pro/ENGINEER part are imported. If all of the features in the file are not supported, you can choose to import the file as either a solid body or a surface model.
When importing an assembly, you can control how to import individual components. Sub-assemblies are supported as well.
Some known limitations are as follows:
· Only versions 17 through 20 of Pro/ENGINEER are supported.
· Assembly features are not supported.
To activate the Pro/ENGINEER translator:
1 Click Tools, Add-Ins.
2 Select SldTrans 1.0 from the list of installed, compatible software products.
To open a Pro/ENGINEER file:
1 Click File, Open.
2 In the Open dialog box, set Files of type to one of the following:
· Pro/ENGINEER Part File (*.prt.*)
· Pro/ENGINEER Part File (*.prt)
· Pro/ENGINEER Assembly File (*.asm.*)
· Pro/ENGINEER Assembly File (*.asm)
· Pro/ENGINEER Part File (*.xpr)
· Pro/ENGINEER Assembly File (*.xas)
3 Browse to the desired file, and click Open.
