Solidworks 2007 DWG import

(OP)
I am trying to import a DWG file but i get the error "xxxx points were out of the modelling limit" What is the modelling limit? How do i change this? i'm stuck because the Solidworks Help is not clear. I am using Solidworks 2007

RE: Solidworks 2007 DWG import

Is the DWG of a very large area? SW appears to have a limit of 500m. I cannot sketch a line longer than 500m.

cheers

RE: Solidworks 2007 DWG import

Or a circle greater than 1000m.

cheers

Well i thought that may be the case so i cut the drawing down to a smaller section of it that is in fact only 299mm at its longest part and that made the same error??
