Visio 2003 Activex Drawing Control and CAD drawings

[Tim McMaster]

Hi,

Does anyone know if CAD drawing files (DXF, DWG) can be imported into
Visio 2003 using the ActiveX control?

And, if so, how this can be done?

I have attempted to import them as a shape on the page using the
Import() function, but every time I get an error saying "Run-time
error xxxxxxx. Identify the file type you are importing".

Thanks in advance
Tim McMaster

I believe the Import function is intended to work with raster image formats
like BMP or JPG. Try using Open instead.
