[Closed] Can anyone help open an old QuickCAD file ...

.CAD isn't an option in Solidworks.
Sorry

This should do it.

Thanks, I did try the CadStd free version, but it would not read it, hence the call to STW! I appreciate it's a long shot, but always worth an ask.
Cheers

Yeah I can't do that from work sorry, but have your tried DraftSight? It is a full-blown AutoCAD clone/competitor but should be able to handy most 2D CAD formats and functions.

Yes I did try, no luck. Checking the forums it does seem daft that a previous AutoCAD connected software is now unreadable, anyway progress!
STW longshot worth asking, we do have an old paper copy, so a manual CAD upgrade is looming (or a scan).
Thanks

Need to open in AutoSketch apparently.

Have you tried simply copying the file and renaming it by editing the file name i.e. .CAD to .dxf or.dwg
I say to copy the file so you don't bollox the original!!

If it's not a sensitive file , then email it over to me and I'll have a play with it.
Address is in my profile

Did you get sorted? If not send it to me if you want and I'll see what I can do in AutoCAD, I've got various versions and the stand alone auto desk viewer for most drawing types, if that doesn't open it then you're probably screwed!!
Good luck!

Would 'Blender' be able to do it. It's free

Thanks, tried AutoCAD, SketchUp, Draftsight, CadStd (free) no luck.
Revs kindly offered to have a try, not tried Autosketch yet, anybody have a copy/licence?
Think we maybe back to a re-draw, but you never know...

Looks like it was originally done in Drafix if anyone has that
