Requirements
This application is developed in Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 .NET 4.5 as a Visual Basic project.

Installation
The compiled executable, opensave.exe, is dependent on several interop assemblies and a "SourceStyles.asm" styles template file:
- Interop.DesignManager.dll
- Interop.SEInstallDataLib.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeAssembly.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeConstants.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeDraft.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeFileProperties.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeFramework.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgeGeometry.dll
- Interop.SolidEdgePart.dll
- SourceStyles.asm
These files are delivered in the bin folder of the OpenSave.  
If you copy opensave.exe to a new location, copy all the supporting files in the bin folder to the same location.

__________________________________
Known Limitations
Opensave does not support Teamcenter managed files.

General Usage

opensave.exe is a tool, written in Visual Basic .Net, to open Solid Edge files and save them in the current version.

Opensave supports both unmanaged files and files managed with Insight.
NOTE: New in ST4.  Checkbox to copy in the ST4 3D Styles (Face and View). 
Selecting this option will affect performance when processing assemblies as each assembly and subassembly must be fully opened to copy the styles.
If the Style checkbox is unchecked, then subassemblies will be updated without being fully opened as they were in ST3.
