Hi Sysops, I was browsing around a week or so and saw a program that seemed to be the answer to many prayers, but couldn't stop to download it. Now I can't find it. (Mabie it was a dream, or another BBS?) That file was something like DXF23DS.ZIP, a DXF to 3DStudio (386-based) program that translates drawings with blocks and thick lines into a 3DS format. Do you know where I can find this (Autodesk?) program? Many thanks in advance! Donald Newlands 73170,3216
