Im trying to create a grand staircase but im not sure how to implement curved lines that completely replicate the curves I made in autoCAD which im using as a model to create in 3DSMax, any ideas?

From your description it is a bit hard to tell what exactly your are looking for but 3ds Max certainly has "curved lines" ("curves"?).

But maybe you would prefer to import the AutoCAD data?

Why not import the splines from the AutoCAD .dwg file?  No need to build them from scratch in Max.

Yes thats what I ended up doing - I did not know it was possible to use the spline of the .dwg file but I figured that out. Thank you

in case you have a hard time recreating those lines, you can use those autocad lines instead.
