solidworks 2009 to 2005

[stanny123]

Is it possible to open a assembly or part in 2009 down to 2005 like you can save to earlier versions on autocad.

 

[Eltron]

No.

I agree with grunt on the sticky thing, but does this site even have that capability?

FAQs are not stickies. The point of a sticky is to make it always the first/second/third thread shown on the site. FAQs require a little bit of digging, while stickies don't. They eliminate the need to constantly post the link to the FAQ.

Almost all forums I frequent have stickies, I'm somewhat surprised this one doesn't.

Could you post an example of a forum with stickies?

The stickies stay at the top of the thread list. New threads are right under the last sticky. As far as I know, the moderator is the only one that can make a thread a sticky, simply to keep them limited. You really only want the most commonly posted topics there, like saving to a previous version or anything relating to graphics cards.

I would suggest a brief note on the subject of the forum, a link to any FAQ's that are central to that forum and then policies and guidelines for posting. One sticky only per forum.

Remember, first define the problem, then solve it.

Just make sure there is some obvious line between the stickies and regulard threads. The number of stickies should be limited to 3 max, IMO.
