I'm having trouble trimming a srface using the trim command.
I've tried to use a plane and sketch to trim the upper half of the
part. It will keep the piece that I want to trim and when I select
to part I want to keep it fails.
We are using SW06

Have you tried using "Remove selections" instead of "Keep selections"?
Try splitting, then deleting the faces, if extending your surfaces doesn't work.
I recommend that if you have been sitting on the fence about moving to a later version of SW-now may be a good time. Good Luck.
I can't answer about 2008 trims being better than 2007, not having enough stick time on 2008, but I can make a suggestion about mutual trims. I was told quite a while ago to keep mutual trims to just two or three bodies. It really does seem to make mutual trims much more stable if you don't try to trim five or six bodies at once. So you may be able to make your parts much more robust without going to the extreme of using only normal trims. (I've also run into cases where I had to use a mutual trim, where I couldn't use two normal trims.)
