How to Recover Solidworks Metadata Files in Excel

Hello

Can you tell me how to retrieve metadata from multiple Solidworks files in the form of an Excel table.

Let me explain:

- With previous versions of solidworks, when you right-click/Properties on a part in the explorer, and there are properties related to the document, you have a customize tab with the properties entered in Solidworks:

By having the metadata apparent as above and using metadata export software, one could extract and create a CSV file from several solidworks documents:

- With the 2015, Once the part has been saved in the solidworks 2015 version, the Customize tab disappears:

From windows, we no longer have access to metadata.

 

Is there a way to find the customize tab?

How can we achieve the same result with the new version?

 

Thank you

Hello;

Unfortunately I have the same problem, with the same answers...  To see:

But I wondered, what utility do you use to extract your metadata in csv?

(as I am still running on solidworks 2014 it would be useful to me).
