Nick, >>I'm sorry if you got the wrong impression about Simply 3D's functionality. Please let me know where in the manual it discusses Autocad drawings, as this is incorrect and needs to be rectified.<< On page 10 in the manual I'll quote: "The Object Designer is used to define the rendering properities of objects. An object is a group of polygon entities defined as a wireframe model using a modeling software package such as AutoCAD. An object is included into a view for rendering." After reading this again, I realize that it does not directly state that AutoCAD drawings may be used in Simply 3D, but this is very misleading. >>As for an Autocad to GED convertor, that utilitiy does not exist.<< Did you not state elsewhere that your other program, VR, does, in fact, do exactly this? Why not take that part of VR and turn it into a stand alone converter for Simply 3D. With such a converter, Simply 3D would instantly become more useable. Other than this, I really am impressed with your product and expect to use it frequently. (even more if I could use my AutoCAD drawings <g>) -Mike Wincek
