      Hi to All

      Now the forum often SKP 8 files are uoloaded. But I can not directly open even though I've installed both versions. In the selection window, two Sketchup applications appear but no matter what I choose it is always the same message. Is there a possibility to change this?

        A shot in the dark here. Sorry don't read German.
        My guess is you have not set windows file association such that it will open a skp file with SU 8. I have Windows XP sp3 hope 7 is not that different. Open up widows explorer tools, folder options, file types and associate skp with SU8. Make a short cut for Su8 to shown on your tool bar and then you can open either ???

          Hi mac 1,

          Thanks for your help. It is so simple. But this possibility I had not thought of.

            On my PC, if I last had version 7.1 open and try to open a V8 file, I get that message. If I last had V8 open, I don't get it. It's worked this way since I installed version 4 alongside version 3.
