AutoCAD Map 3D

[#1]

I have an old Generic CADD .gcd file. Unfortunately the original software is on floppy disks and I don't have an "A drive" so I can't load the program and convert the files to a .dxf. Is there any utility out there that can convert a .gcd file to .dwg?

Generic Cad eventaully became Visual Cad (Numera Software). Visual Cad is
able to open GCD files but I don't know if you can find it anywhere either.
Try searching on those clues.

Hello Robert,

Reply to me directly with your email address and I will forward you a
conversion utility that was included with I think, AutoCAD LT v2. Converts
.gcd files to AutoCAD R12 .dwg

It runs through a DOS window & works very well under the circumstances.

Cheers.

Ric Norris.

Hello Ric,

I've been looking for such a converter for some time now, can you send it to me as well?

Downloaded a trial copy of Visual Cad; was able to open the gcd file and save it as a dwg. It looks pretty funky, and a fair amount of work is required to clean it up and adjust it so it can work in ACMv2010, but it's one option that beats re-drawing. Thanks for the tip.

Sorry to hear it is not a good translation. I never had to go that route as
I left the company and never had to translate the files to DWG.

By the way, Corel owned Visual CAD for a time, in case that helps in some
way.

I too have been searching for this tool for quite a while.... If it isn't too much trouble I would really appreciate a copy of the conversion utility.

I have been using Generic Cadd 3.0 in about 1989. It has this wonderfull feater of loading a txt file.

I still have the program and have it running on an old Dos system. But I cannot find the user instruction manual.

I would be very happy if some-one could either sent me een a copy of the entire manual, or could tell me the instruction of importing the txt file in the program.

Thank you very much.
