Dear,



I installed SW 2006 after I had installed SW 2007. Now I had two different versions of SW in my local server. I want to run SW 2007 or other version via SW API. If I call CreateDispatch(_T("SldWorks.Application")), SW 2006 as the default version will be started.

How to start SW 2007 via SW API?

R:
Hello,
I think you’ll get the result you are looking for if you call CreateDispatch with the version-specific ProgID for SW2007. For example, in my registry under the CLSID for SldWorks 2007 Application, I have for VersionIndependentProgID: “SldWorks.Application”, but for ProgID, I have “SldWorks.Application.15”.
