Autocad viewing
I am sent building drawings over email. I have turbo cad but not the latest version and it will not read the latest autocad .dwg files. Without going
to any great expense how can I just view these drawings?????

If you can get the drawings sent as .dwf then you can go to the Autodesk website and download a dwf viewer for free

...or you can download Voloview for free from Autodesk and read dwg's and dxf's in.

Volo view won't be around for much longer
DWF is the way forward.

The real way forward is Solidworks!

Please, not CAD Wars again!  It's funny how some people have preferences for different software but are prepared to try or even accept similar
products, except when it comes to CAD software and then it's seconds away, come out fighting!
It's nearly as bad as the idiots down here when it comes to Ford or Holden cars. Lives have been lost in petty rows about which is the best. On
many a Saturday night, you can witness two oafs standing toe-to-toe shouting FORD!...HOLDEN!...FORD!...HOLDEN!...FORD!...HOLDEN!
Err..anyway, what the others said.... and INVENTOR!
Cheers, Rorty.
