    I'm pretty sure you can directly open acad drawings with pro/e then save it as a
    pro/e drawing. It turns the whole thing into a bunch of draft entities, no
    parametrics.

    i want to convert 3d solid model of acad dwg into proe solid
    Export as *.sat (double check export units), *.igs or *.stp (if the translators
    are present). Acad can create entity types (3D mesh reps, etc.) that are not
    supported by one or more of those translators so you may still have some
    problems to iron out.

    Dass,

    I've been doing what you are trying to do with one exception ... I have
    a seat of Mechanical Desktop. You can export as STEP, IGES etc. If
    STEP does not work, then I try IGES, if IGES does not work, it's
    desperation time. I recently converted an AutoCAD drawing to a VRML
    file (it was fairly complex geometry), the ONLY thing that would work
    (tessellated).

    Good Luck!

    Paul

    We ask our suppliers for 2D geometry in CGM format, as it falls apart
    much less than dxf.
