Can SW export a part into an excel file or ASC. file?
We need to send information about the part such as holes, depth,location or routes in a part. We cannot do this through dxf.due to the fact that the cam package we use needs to have the datacome in through either an ASC. or excel format.
I know that SW can send the attributes for the part like size andcustom properties but I need to have the machining sent out in thepreviously mentioned formats.
Thanks for any help..

It will, export a 3DXML and ACIS files, which are ascii text.
What it sounds like you need is a CAM package to create the G-code for the tooling shop. You might want to look into something like FeatureCAM
It works directly with Solidworks models
