Micheal,

thanks but no such luck. The programs keep seeing them as splines which I can change to bezier which makes a mess of the line. Can you recommend a program (that doesn't cost an arm and a leg) that can recognize a nurbs curve as a circle? I had turbocad 8 pro from years ago and tried doublecad as it was free to hoping they had updated things. All I'm doing is 2D line work that I'm laying down the dimensions.

Thank

Val
