I would just like to note a quick correction to a couple of earlier articles. When modifying how SolidWorks callouts internal threads on drawings, the file to modify is calloutformat.txt, not calloutmethod.txt. Thank you to “Brain” to catching this error.
The affected articles are:
Drill and Tap; and calloutformat.txt (Part 1)
Drill and Tap; and calloutformat.txt (Part 2)
I apologize for any confusion the original error may have caused.
The example files uploaded to Lorono’s SolidWorks Resources were correct all along: SW 2005 and SW 2007. By the way, if someone has a 2008 (or any other) version they would like to make available on the resources website, please contact me with your file.

As a drafter, mechanical designer and CAD engineer, I've been in the mechanical design field since 1991.
For the first 8 years of my career, I was an AutoCAD professional. I utilized AutoLISP and many other AutoCAD customization features to streamline drafting activities for 6+ drafters and designers. I authored several custom functions, one of which was published in the March 1997 issue of Cadalyst Magazine.
Since 1998, I've been used SolidWorks non-stop. I've worked to utilize the SolidWorks' user environment to simplify drafting and design activities for 20+ engineers. I've created this website to provide current information about SolidWorks from a variety of contributors.
More recently, I am now employed by Dassault Systemes as SOLIDWORKS Sr. Product Definition Manager to improve drawing, annotation and MBD related areas.
