Just like the title asks, can I? I have SW at home but Pro e is what we use at school. If I can come home and do my drawings and then convert them 100% to a Pro e file for grading, that would make my life a little easier. If not, oh well. Let me know if it's possible. Thanks

I'm pretty sure you can open the files in SW and resave them into Pro E or a number of other formats.

solid model wise, you can convert solidworks to pro/e using STEP or stp files. As for drawing, you can import the drawing into Pro/e using dxf file.

sweet thanks guys. so all I need to do is save a drawing file as dxf and I can open it with pro e? I'll try that tonight to make sure I have it correct.

You can download a student copy of Pro-E for free, if i can believe my instructor. I'll know more on Friday.
