Any SolidWorks User

I just got the 2008 version of SolidWorks at work. This is my first direct exposure to it. Any one here use it on a regular basis? Please tell me the learning curve isn't going to be as long as it seems right now.

I have SolidWorks 2005 at home and use Pro/Enigneer Wildfire 2 and 3 at home and work.

I don't use SolidWorks at work so I don't have an up to date version.

I have messed around with it and do intend to learn it at some point. I have found taking a course at a local ROP or Jr. College to be the fast track to getting a solid start on these types of programs as I did with Mastercam and Autocad.

We are scheduled for some training classes in January, but for now I'm left to struggle with it.

I use Esprit for a CAM package. Having solids makes life with Esprit much easier. Trying to learn SolidWorks so I can create the solids I need when a customer can't provide them.

Can get frustrating when you know there is a easy way to do something but you can't seem to find the correct mouse clicks.
