    Hello everyone,


    This group has been so helpful that I thought I better start
    contributing a bit.
    and share a quick tidbit to enter dimension equations.

    Just add a dimension in a sketch (i.e. a line) and after placing
    the dimension you will be asked to enter the value (if you have it set
    that way
    under options). While this dialog box is open, just hit the down (or
    up) arrow on your
    keyboard and you will be automatically taken into the equations dialog
    box.

    Saves you the clicking...

    Hope it helps some of you..

    Whoa! Where did that come from?

    Very nice catch.

    I think it arrived in SW2006 - I don't remember it before then.
