But, having tried several times, and with Bobcad support, any .dwg drawing I load is invisible. I've tried in Mech Desktop 2007 and 2005.
Anyone out there successfully using this file type? Had this problem? Do Inventor files work?
Thanks in advance.

I haven't had any trouble with DWG files. Can you post a file of a simple box or something to test?
