    Does Solidworks 2004 have the ability to create a curve between to
    intersecting surfaces?

  2. SolidWorks has had this ability since I can remember. The problem
    is that they always hide the Command Button for it, and I feel it's
    worthy of being visible in a normal install. Anyhow, customize
    your buttons and add the one in the sketch area called "Intersection
    Curve".

    Thanks Mike!

    I missed this one - because the command doesn't actually produce a "curve".
    It does produce a "sketch" then I have to use the "Composite Curve" feature
    to convert it.
    However I'm getting a message: "The sketch has disjoint sketch segments and
    is not suitable for composite curve creation" - ugh!

    oh well maybe someday!
