    I guess 'cause that is an older version while newer versions of DraftSight and DoubleCAD XT are available? These can also open current versions of .dwg as well. Active user support groups and updates help too.

    The bulk of my business is commercial curtainwall, site plans and floor plans. I do occasionally get a bit of tool and die, and the odd house now and again.

    Look at Draftsight too Wilbri. Its free, and works very much like Autocad.

    Doublecad XT can be kinda quirky...I like Draftsight much better.

    Thanks for this update.
    Will have a look at both and comment accordingly.
    Hopefully they are AutoCad compatible?

    Draftsight and Doublecad XT both are completely compatible with the dwg format.

    If DraftSight could open .skp it would be the best 2D cad program on the planet!
