We have both ACAD & SW here and both are used for their own purposes. But we also have to share info back and forth and it has always been a simple task to highlight some sketch entities in ACAD and then paste those entities into a SW sketch. However, we have found that with ACAD 2007 or 2008, when the sketch entities are pasted into a SW sketch in either SW2007 or SW2008 they come in as one OLE drawing object, which is junk, not as the sketch entities.
I think the testing we have done back and forth has narrowed it down to a change in the ACAD environment. My reasoning is because I can use DWG editor to open an ACAD 2007 file, highlight the desired entities, copy to the clipboard, and paste into SW2008 as we used to do with ACAD 2006. Or I can tell SW to open the ACAD file directly and it works.
So the question is, has anyone figured out what's going on? Is there a way in ACAD 2007/2008 to tell it to copy just the entities as it used to do?
