pro/e drawing file to autocad drawing?
(OP)
Dear all,
I tried sending a pro/e drawing in dxf format which I wanted it to open in Autocad file.The drawing came in fine in autocad 2000,but after I tried to alter some dimensions in autocad ,it gave a error message and the drawing simply went off the screen.I logged into autocad again and then the same thing happened.
I have given up on this task now.All I want to know is Can it be done?
Thanks in advance.

Why not export PRO/E drawing files in dwg format(Autocad native)?

I have had similar problems, the best way I have found to work aroud it is to use edit>copy (use a window to pick all your entities) then paste them into a new drawing.
Good Luck

I did try exporting pro/e drawing in DWG File and It was a success.
1)Save the pro/e drawing in Dwg file
2)open in Autocad.
It is surprising it was that easy.
