I try to use the search before I ask any questions and end up coming back with no results. Am I using the search function wrong, is there a specific way of using it. Frankly I have tried holding my tong every which way I know how. The question I was trying to look up was where can I find a site and direction on making macros.

Search seems to be working for me.

1) Click the Search button on the gray menu bar (2nd button), not the Google Search.
2) Type "creating macros" in the Keywords field.
3) Ensure Scope is enabled for "SolidWorks 3D CAD products only"
4) Ensure Use is enabled for "Exact Phrase".
5) Ensure Area is enabled for "Forums".
6) Ensure Fields is enabled for "Full Text".
7) Ensure When is enabled for "Any Date".
8) click Search button at the bottom of the page.

You should get 4 threads listed.
