Thanks for the info guys

Can anyone tell me the major diferences between Mastercam & Camworks. I am a Mastercam user and my new company is asking me to do research on these two systems. The company likes Camworks because it is a part of Solidworks they are all engineers). I have never used Camworks before. My decision is for Mastercam but I am trying to give Camworks a fair shake. The company I work for does 2 1/2D work. Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

I need help importing a solidworks drawing. It is probally something very simple that I am overlooking but I need some help. I am using V9.0. I did File/Converters/Parasolids but when it goes to bring the file in I get a message that there are no solids. I then tried to convert it to IGES that worked so I brought the file into Mastercam. The only problem I have is when I goto select features to machine Mastercam will not highlight the endpoints, centers, midpoints, etc. I am not sure if the engineers are not doing something correctly to the Solidworks file or I am just lost on how to import them. Can anyone help me Thanks, Hopeless
