      .sldprt is a solidworks file correct? Unfortunetly PTC (Maker of Creo) does not have the function to convert from solidworks to Creo/ProEngineer. You should be able to open the files as solid geometry import though but won't have control over any of the geometry. Solidworks does however have the capability to open most of PTC CAD modeling program files.

      Nguyen,
      Many of the CAD packages have translators that are good to a point: the problem is that they will only manage files of particular versions, and they do not have any finer control. Translation software needs to be right up to date to ensure a trustworthy conversion. My two suggestions would be:
      1 - Try using another format. If possible use Parasolid instead of sldprt, this should be more reliable (if you can get it).
      2 - Use a professional translation software such as CADfix. I am able to arrange this as a service.

      I hope this helps

      There is a new ability in Creo 3 which has been built on this functionality of cross platform sharing. It even converts features to their respective feature in the new format. I have never had good luck with CADfix with any models I have used it on. Maybe some simpler models it can pump out no problem. The new functionality in Creo 3 is pretty impressive in its ability. Some major collaboration between different vendors to get it to its current point.

      Hi all
      I work as application Engg. My work is to educate Engg and organisations on the capabilities and values of design software's.

      Creo has the capability to save the solid words file as .prt file, but u need unite technology adaptors for that which will come along with the package. With this u can even edit solid works file by direct modelling capabilities or u can edit the pattern or symmetry made in solid works in Creo environment

      Hey Dinesh, the original post was made over 3.5 years ago. Perhaps Creo has made some changes in that time.

      By the way, welcome to the forum. You are not the first new member to dredge up ancient and dead conversations by replying to their search results.

      As a matter of fact Creo is now capable of saving and editing native solid works files without loosing the file structure. There are a few bugs and bumpy spots. I believe this is a paid addition on top of the basic license.
