Hey, thanks for that link.

This other company has been doing the viewers for AutoCAD
before AutoCAD even offered them. The reason I mention
them is that way back in the early '90s I used their
Panoramic product that allowed me to externally call the
AutoCAD drawings via DDE from FPW2.6a. It was high tech
at the time. But, what was good too was that the viewers
not only read AutoCAD, but also Word documents, Lotus
spreadsheets, etc. Their products seem to read just about
everything, including the other CAD stuff, like Intergraph's
MicroStation files.
