For those of you using the admin image for deployment you can add the removal of this to the preinstall batch or the post install batch. This means that to remove the old DWGEditor files you will need to uninstall that product separately. The install files for the SOLIDWORKS 2D editor are a separate download and a separate install. Since the upgrade to service pack 3.0 does not contain an upgrade to the DWGEditor the programs group for 2.1 remains in the add/remove programs. I have seen this before so I had a pretty good idea what was going on here. Once the upgrade was complete I noticed that the old SOLIDWORKS 2.1 installation was still in the add remove programs group. Its used as an open alternative to the closed DWG format. On my machine I ran a standard upgrade using the installation manager. It contains information regarding vector graphics in binary or ASCII. For some users they will need to take a closer look at what is going on when they run an upgrade to their previous version. The product will also be a separate download and install. For service pack 3.0 the DWGEditor will be called the SOLIDWORKS 2D editor. Mainly the fact that it is gone! Ok, relax, it isn’t really gone, it has gotten a new face lift along with a name change. I want the user to edit the content of that doc and have it be replaced in place with as minimal hassle on the user as possible.SOLIDWORKS customers that are on subscription will find a small change to the editor when installing service pack 3.0. The bottom line is I have a doc, for example, on my server in some directory. My language of choice is PHP, but I can do anything really if I have to. jpg (is there a good image editing client out there?) Are there any tools out there that can help me edit files that are on a server? I'm thinking kind of like a Google Docs kind of thing, your file actually sits somewhere in Googleland, but you can access and edit it in your browser. I'm aware of using samba, but that's not exactly what i want. Has anybody run into this problem and solved it in the past.

If a user wants to update that file, he has to download the file to his local machine, edit it with his desktop software (Word, AutoCAD, etc), then reupload the file. I have a media archive with various file types on my server.
