How can I hack a SolidWorks file to change the creator/author?

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

jk000 asked:

I have a SolidWorks file and I need to change the author of that file. Currently each build in the left hand-side pane says that it was created by ‘X’ and I want to change this to ‘Y’. Basically, hacking the file and changing the properties. (This isn’t as illegitimate as it sounds!) Thanks!

I am having to do a 2 day presentation over the author Stephen Crane. I have alot of his biographical information. Can anyone tell me some really interesting facts about him to make my presentation really good. I want to know some things that you wouldn’t learn just by reading his biography.

Rachel asked:

I really love Jodi Picoult’s writing style in My Sister’s Keeper. If I were to use a similiar style in my own stories, would that be considered Plagiarism? Will this story of mine become a real book, who knows. But I am an inspiring writer and it is my dream to become an author. Can anyone help me out here?

Would you be upset if the author and the main character in a book have the same name?

Hockey Girl asked:

Or if in every book the author writes, the main character has the same name as the others even if the books are not related?

Just curious as to what you would think of this. Thanks!
The second question is just dumb because I know I would get annoyed.

So, about the first: Would you give the book a chance?
