    Anyone got any experience of exporting solidworks 2004 sp3 parts to VX
    (I don't know which version).

    I have tried iges but my client says this does not work.

    TIA

    Thanks,
    Do you know which works best though:

    Parasolid *.x_t
    or
    Parasoild Binary *.x_b

  4. should be the same quality, binary files being significantly smaller in
    size.

    FYI,
    I managed to transfer the files using *.x_t format saving it with the
    ver.8 option (default ver.15).

    My client said the *.x_b files would not open (message said
    incompatible file type) - I don't know what was going on there!

    Anyway, job done!

    BTW he said he was using VX ver 8.1 if that means anything to anyone.

    Thanks,
