Solidworks Interface

I have created simple geometries in Solidworks 2008, Solidworks 2010 and Solidworks 2011. When I import into COMSOL using the Solidworks interface, the scale of the part is correct but the dimensions are wrong.

After manipulating a few parameters, this is what I have found.

Created Solidworks part with units set to meters, COMSOL imports as meters (regardless of what I set in Preferences.)
Distance between two points is correct, but length of the edge connecting those two points is multiplied by a factor of two. If you go back into Preferences to changes Units, the numerical value doesn't change. An edge that is reported as .0508 meters is reported as .0508 inches, then .0508 feet.

Is there something I an doing incorrectly?

Thanks In Advance
