FeatureWorks in SW2007

I know this is included in 2008's base package but what about SW2007? I
re-installed 2007 on a second machine and selected featureworks to be
installed also as we had a license for it. But it never came up and asked
me for the serial number, so why am I asking? I had SWs previously on this
machine and I thought that it was possible that it was getting the serial
number from the registry...maybe? I just need to verify this because a
company I consult for has need of the featureworks but they only have the
basic license.

Thanks for your help.

 

As far as I know FeatureWorks is part of the SW Office
packages.....for sure it was in 2007 at least.

Yeah I knew it was part of the office package...but we don't have the office
package only the base package. But when we originally 'lincensed'
SolidWorks we also got FeatureWorks, Animator and PhotoWorks. If I remember
correctly there was no 'office' way back then. So my question still stands
and I will be more direct in re-stating it. Is FeatureWorks included in the
BASE package of SW2007?

 

No...it was not included in SW2007 Base package.

It is not in the base package of 2007. I had not heard that it IS included
in 2008. I knew Animator has been integrated, but... Since I have
FeatureWorks, I can't think of a way to see if it is included in the SW
license when I open 2008.

 

FeatureWorks is not included in the base package, but if you have it
associated with your license, you no longer need to enter a separate
serial number to turn it on. The "activation" code knows what add-ons
are associated with the license. The activation will work with
SW2006, 2007 & 2008.

If you activated 2008, but still have the old reg code license for
2007 installed, change the S/N through Control Panel - Add/Remove
Programs and enter the 24-digit code when prompted.

 

Thanks,
That explains what I am seeing on this end. I was expecting the separate
serial numbers...
