Importing Google SketchUp to SolidWorks

[motorhead]

Has anyone had luck with sycodes solidworks "add in" to import a google sketchup file to a solidworks file? I saw there is a free trial period, but was curious if anyone had used it before and if it worked as well as they suggest. Thanks

I've never used Solidworks but I know there are add-ons for Sketchup that let you export to a .dxf if that helps.

Thanks zambo for the info. Unfourtunately the potential client needs the sketchup files in a solid model format so he can have them imported into mastercam. I haven't come across any software to import sketchup files to mastercam.
