    When you have a file open in SW2003, and you try to open SW Explorer inside the program, your spaceball 4000 FLX driver does not work anymore. You have to reboot your machine to get it working again. If you open SW E outside SolidWorks (start menu), there is no problem. Does anyone now how to...
