The learning resources were too awesome for the internet, let alone our universe, to handle

Barry - Can you provide details about what files are corrupted? I poked around and did not find any zip files, only pdf and html files that opened properly. I can investigate if you can give me these details. Thanks.

Hi Deepak. If you use the link
http://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/learning-resources-cad-pdm-fea.htm and are logged in to the Forums, you get the API Examples, Documents tab, with 95 examples.

You should ignore the links that Greg showed and use this link in my reply to get to valid content.
Is that what you are asking Deepak?
Thanks.

That's strange. My Documents tab has 95 documents. Can you try logging out of the Forum, then back in, then visiting the link again? I too had no documents showing, but I was not logged in. After logging in, I had 95 docs. Maybe exit/login will clear that up? try and let me know. thanks.

No progress here but I guess I have found the reason. Just testing it to make sure.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Barry - I cannot reproduce your corruption issue. I opened the SW Teacher Guide>Instructor Presentation zip file in English. It has 12 PPT presentations and I could open them. The file size is over 23MB. Do you perhaps have some download limitation on file size? I poked around and was able to open a few other zip files ok.

I I will see if it is a WINRAR issue or a web Download Issue.

OK. I'm sorry about that. I hope you can pinpoint the cause and resolve this. If it might be something on the SolidWorks side, I can follow up on that. Also, if you want I can download a reasonable amount of stuff and email it to you or send it to an FTP site if you have that. Let me know. It'd be best to solve the issue so you can download only stuff you want.

Joe, any chance if you can download all of those example, zipped in one file and email it to me.

Those API example have been really helpful. And in the meantime I'll find the casue.

TIA

Hi Deepak. Are you writing about the API examples? If so, I don't have time to download 95 examples. Best is to try to fix the issue from your side. But maybe you're referring to something else?

Are you referring to the section titled SolidWorks Teacher Guide (2010)? Please confirm. Also, please give me an email or FTP address to send them to. thanks.

A couple of items.
- Links were updated.
- The API examples are documents that only (now) require a login to view.
- Tech Tip search for items directly in the forums.

The reason you cannot see the API example is that these are protected and require subscription service access.

If your account should be tied to a license with subscription, you can register a serial # on the Customer Portal home page. If this does not work, you setup your initial account with a company name that did not match our records.

You can ask your reseller for help, or see this document for more help https://forum.solidworks.com/community/general/blog/2009/07/30/forum-tip--creating-an-account.
