[JoshH]

Hi folks,

I attempted to open a Solidworks drawing with no luck.

I can open a Solidworks part without a problem.

Anybody else able to open a Solidworks drawing in Creo 1?

Hi Vladimir, attached is a simple Solidworks part and drawing I created for testing.

Creo Parametric 1.0 (and Creo/Elements Pro 5.0) can open only two types of 3D models from SolidWorks - assembly (".sldasm") and part (".sldprt"). To view drawings (".slddrw") created ​​in SolidWorks, you can use a free viewer "eDrawings": http://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/downloads.htm?cid=hp_tab_support_downloads

Also you can save drawings in "DWG" format, which can be opened in Creo Parametric 1.0 (and Creo/Elements Pro 5.0).
