I am using a book,
Engineering Design with SolidWorks 2008 & MultiMedia CD I would not recommend it, it’s a badly written book, with very boring style (click this, then click that, not explaining why), inconsistent use of terms, poorly edited, and featuring very strange sequence of material. But it got me going anyway.
The current Student version is actually 2007. But I have no problems using the 2008 book. The look and feel of buttons and menus is a bit different, but everything is easy to find.
