Solid Mechanical 4.1.1 in SW2007???

[Scott4tg]

Does anyone know if the SolidMech 4.1.1. plugin will work with SW2007 Office??? It says it is supported up to SW2006.

Thanks!

Scott

If it doesn't you may be able to hack a DLL with a hex editor to let it run. SolidWorks supports pretty much all of the old function calls in new versions. I have a catalog that was supported up through 2005. When we upgraded to 2006 it wouldn't work anymore. This particular catalog has a DLL with a version check that asks SolidWorks what version it is. SolidWorks reports back a string. I just had to change the DLL to accept "14" rather than "13".

SolidMech 4.1.1 works fine for me with SW07-SP4.
