The Softdesk version of Drafix Cad for Windows v4.0 will open your Drafix
Ultra dwg files (these are not AutoCad format) and then save them as
something else, DrafixCAD, AutoCAD, etc.
I'm sure Paul will have this program available, but if he doesn't let me
know and I'll convert them for you.
BTW, Cad Ultra used to include a command line utility to batch convert dwg
files to dxf. Haven't you got a copy on the installation disks?
