Exporting AutoCAD dwg files from idw files

Does the exported dwg file always have to be a zip file?  I have tried save as a dwg file but it seems to be an Invnetor dwg which has the geometry as a block when opened with AutoCAD.  It is a little easier to explode the block in AutoCAD rather than open and extract the zip file, save the extracted dwg then delete the zip file.

In optons, uncheck pack and go if it's checked

If it's not checked, check it then uncheck it. 

That's worked for me in the past.

(may require actually doing a save copy as between the checking and unchecking)

Thank you so much!  That was so much easier.  It really helped after the screen shots came in because I couldn't figure out which "options" were supposed to be accessed.
