Hi everyone!

I recently installed SolidCam 2007 R11.1 and was successfly connected to SolidWorks 2008 SP0 installed on my computer. The problem is when I try to open a new CAM part from and existing SolidWorks part, and error message pops up telling me that SolidWorks needs to restart to recover the files ... I don't know what does this mean. However, I restart and retry but the problem keeps happening.

Is this a solidcam problem or solidworks's?

I was told that SolidCam 2007 is not compatible with SolidWorks 2008. Another suggestion was to upgrade SolidWorks to SP1 or SP2 ... Any help from a SolidCam user? ... Or any other CAD software recommendation for my wire cut EDM machine?

Thanks in advance

I think this is a problem with SolidCAM R11.1 as I have had no problems using R11.2 with SolidWorks 2008.

SolidCAM R11.1 was very soon replaced by R11.2 and I am surprised that your reseller did not offer you R11.2.
