Why are my SW files so large?

I just started using SW v2007. I had used it back in 2000 butam not quite up to speed yet. I mainly have been using Inventorv2008.

Anyway, I noticed some of my SW model and drawing files areextremely large considering they are pretty basic. I just opened afairly simple (hat shaped) model and although it does a few filletsand the company logo and patent info (embossed), it's 24 megs(24,139 KB).

What am I overlooking or doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!SolidworksGeneral
