The Temecula Valley User Group Meeting

Last night, I attended the TVSWUG meeting. A small but enthusiastic crowd showed-up to hear my PDMW Enterprise presentation. I abhor Power Point slides, so we jumped right in and I fired-up my favorite data management application. None of the attendees had seen Enterprise in action, and most were impressed with its capabilities. Some liked the the ability to create Versions (without creating Revisions) quickly. Others liked the fact that any Windows file type can be managed by Enterprise.

As usual, I asked how many attendees were using SolidWorks 2008 for production work; the answer was 20%. The remainder said they were using version 2007 and saw no reason to upgrade to 2008.

Later, I opened up the meeting to any and all questions. The topic soon turned to ToolBox. I demonstrated the little known ToolBox Tool, "sldsetdocprop.exe"  Use this tool to set or remove the attribute, "Is A ToolBox Part" This is very handy if you don't want to use the default ToolBox interface and set up your own Library.
