Hello! I have several files that were made on SolidWorks 2014, but I only have access to SolidWorks 2013 and I cannot open these. Could someone save them for the 2013 or even the 2012 version, please. It will be greatly appreciated. The files can befound here https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BxsdXgxtHKZQMUpXSko3cngzYXc&usp=sharing
It isn't possible to save a new version file as an older version; it's a limitation of 3D CAD as a whole.
Hit the wrong button...
Anyway, you can't save backwards. I saved the files off as parasolids which will allow you to open them in 2012 or 2013 (or any version for that matter). They'll come in as dumb solids. If you have FeatureWorks, it'll recognize most of the features of each part so that you can edit.
Thanks a lot
