Okay, the WHIP viewer is only for DWF files from ACAD 13, 14, & 2000 only. It does NOT handle DWG files or DWF from ACAD 2002 based products (Inventor), Volo View Express 2.01 handles DWF, DWG, & DXF only if you download the english language version. Non-english versions of VVE will NOT view DWG & DXF files only DWF files from ACAD 2002.
What version fo ACAD are you dealing with? If it' 13, 14, or 2000 or going to have to use WHIP & DWF files. If it's ACAD 2002 and you can use an english language viewer then you can use DWF, DWG, or DXF. If it's ACAD 2002 and your using a non-english viewer then it's DWF only. If you have a site that has a mixture of ACAD versions from 13 thru 2002, or going to have to have to either distinguish between the versions somehow and use the appropriate viewer or you will have to open each file into ACAD 2002 and save each one back into 2002 format. The file format for DWF changed between ACAD 2000 & 2002. Sucks I know, esp. the english/non-english thing.

Only my third code-example points to the whip-viewer plug, and that's most likely wrong. My first and second example may also be wrong, someone know how to get it right? I have tried these two viewers: Volo View Express 2.01. On this page http://www.autodesk.no/adsk/index/0,,837403-123112,00.html it says: "DWF-Only Version of Volo View Express. Views only DWF files and does not view DWG or DXF files." When I fill out the form and continue, the next page says: "This version should understand DWG, DXFT, and DWF (ePlot and eView) files." What is right? WHIP! 4.0 On this page http://www.autodesk.com/cgi-bin/whipreg.pl it says: "you can view and print AutoCAD drawings without using AutoCAD." On the next page a plug-in is downloaded and I can see a .dwf file in my browser. Still, when I try to execute my code to view drawing1.dwg it won't work. Is my code right, and if it is where can I download a ".dwg-plug-in". regards, Lars "Dave Merritt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> skrev i melding news:109DB0BF6260D211A1B30008C7A4AA1B129674A4@;postoffice.arvinmeritor.com... > Lars, > > You say you downloaded the Volo View Express, but your plug-in page points > to the WHIP viewer plug.
