    I have a slidworks drawing file (*.slddrw), but some of the part file
    (*.sldprt) related to the drawing is missing, are there any way I can
    edit the drawing file? thanks

    You can work on the drawing, but anything it can't find will be missing. If
    you think you will find it later, and can work around it, you should be ok.

    If you can open the drawing with the parts available you can unlink the
    drawing from the parts and have an independent drawing that does not
    referance the models, it can be re-linked again later. But if you don't have
    the parts available when you first open the drawing you are pretty much
    pooched.
