Problem viewing CAD

Edwards Finance > CAD Drafting

Q. When I try to import some dwg files nothing happens. I feel it may be something to do with the version of either the CAD file or Visio. I am using Visio 2002 Proffesional SP2 I do the following: Open up a new visio file. Select Insert then from drop down menu select CAD Drawing.. browse to folder and file and select the dwg file. Some files open others will not. Is there anything I can do.

A. -It sounds like it could be a couple of different issues. Start by checking the version of cad used to create the initial drawings, another could be just size of the drawings. -It could be that the file is imported but either too big or too small to see (check the Drawing Explorer window to see if a shape was created)
