full conversion from standard edition to plus edition

Hi,

I'm a student and I'm using SW2001 at home and use SW2001 PLUS
education edition in the department. (I know its not the newest
software out there). I am very anxious on porting my files to my
computer at home as it is so much more convenient. However, it seems
as though SW2001 PLUS does not allow for saving as an older version. I
have read other posts on this board and the only solutions are saving
the files as file types which do not preserve features.

Is there any solution to bring my files from 2001 Plus over to 2001
without losing features etc? Maybe 3rd party software? Are the two
versions really that fundamentally different that this is impossible?

Would really appreciate some help thanks!

Well if you read the posts you would have realized that this is not possible
and probably never will be.

Most of us here are using SW2004 and this capability is still not present.

So if you want to use your SW01+ model in your SW2001. You will have to
Parasolid it out and back in. You will lose your feature tree.

I seen this converter at SWWC 2004 and it's not any good than simply
parasoliding out and back in. You save the file out as 3ds bring it back in
and it tries "and I do stress the word tries", to rebuild the part. If it's
the basic stuff it makes it. If it's new functionality then it becomes a
imported body. So I guess it works for the basic stuff, but how many of us
just build basic parts?
