Ed, what's your assessment of the number of people who use AutoCAD release 9, versus the number that have versions earlier than release 9? My AutoCAD converter for InterChange reads and converts the elevated and extruded entities such as lines and solids, meaning pre-release 9 users can load their existing objects into Amiga 3D programs. Do release 9 people tend to use 3DFACE entities for their entire object, or do they continue to use the more common LINE and SOLID type entities for drawing? I say it's the latter.
