Solidworks 2007 says Future Version of 2009 can't be read. This very crucial as time is of the essence. I hope this isn't a prevalent or common issue.

Any insight would be wonderful thanks!
 
Hello !


This ismy second post on this topic. The first one do not appear. Maybe I make a mistake.


An older program versioncan not open files create in a newer version. This is available for all programs, not only for SW.


SW, like all other programs, can run files create in older versions but, if you modify something, you can save ONLY in the current version, unlike other programs wich can save files in older versions. This is the sailpolicy of SW team.


Try to save your files in other formats. Use SAVE AS command and choose IGES or PARASOLID or other format maybe SW 2007 can read one of this. Is only an idea, I do not know if that work.


Good luck !
 
Like most things, the Internet has its good and its dark side. And, considering the pervasiveness of the Internet in society, wow gold it is certainly having an effect on our brains. After all, everything we do affects our brain. Though up until the 1980
 
FYI, If you need your file fully parametric, STEP, IGES or Parasolid, these are dumb solids. You will have to use feature reconition to rebuild your part. CK out www.translationtech.com. They do our translations. foward, back and to other programs. Excellant price and quick turnaround.
