Dave,
Just a point of clarification, extruded entities such as lines, arcs, circle,
and polylines import quite well into 3DS. Block really aren't much of a
problem either. It is quite possible that your version of AA was violating
some other rules of 3DS import with its extrusions, but don't blame the
entities themselves.
AutoCAD modeling with extruded entities and polylines is a very powerful tool
and works quite well with 3DS. Phillip Miller is an expert on this technique
and he wrote chapter 11 of Inside 3D Studio which deals in depth with
AutoCAD import into 3D Studio. You might want to check that out.
