(OP)
Can some one tell me how to import or insert a Microsoft work document in to AutoCAD 2007

Thanks

RE: import or insert a Microsoft

There's a few ways, here's a couple... (I'm assuming you mean a Word document)
1. Highlight and copy to the clipboard the Word document. In Acad go to Edit > Paste Special > Paste (or Paste Link if you want it linked).
2. Save your Word document as an .rtf file. In Acad start Mtext > Options > Insert Text.

I use Insert --> OLE Object. It works for a wide range of file types.

RE: import or insert a Microsoft

Copy paste has always worked well for me.  There is a program out there to link the data.  We didnt have a good experience with the linking because someone forgot to reprint the drawings after changing the spreadsheet.
