Hello,

I have found how to import and auto cad drawing and convert it into a visio drawing,

To convert CAD objects, follow these steps:

1.In Visio 2000, right-click the CAD drawing, point to CAD Drawing Object, and then click Convert.
2.In the Convert Wizard, hold down the CTRL key, and then click to select the layers or levels that contain the objects that you want to convert. Click Next.
3.Choose whether to delete or hide the original layers or levels.
4.For DWG files, specify how you want to convert dimensions:
•To get dimension lines that are updated when you resize the associated Visio shapes, click Convert Into Visio's Dimension Shapes. Converted dimension lines lose their original CAD font and line style.
•To preserve the CAD formatting of dimensions, including the font and line style, click Convert Into Lines And Text.
5.Click Finish to convert the objects on the selected CAD layers or levels.
