Hi rupali,

If you search the web you will find several file splitting programs.

They are used to break large files down so that they can be copied to
small size media such as Floppy disks, or CDs

However, to import a DXF file the file must be a complete file in its
own right.

It depends what you mean by complete...
From the help file -
"AutoCAD lets you omit many items in a DXF file and still obtain a usable drawing"

Hi Peter,

I meant it in the context of the information I posted. The file
breaking programs I mentioned are designed to break and rejoin a file
after copying the file via more than one media item. The individual
bits of the file will almost certainly not be of any use on their own.

For purposes of your comment - interpret "complete" as meaning a DXF
file which "AutoCAD can read without error"

As, in this case, when one is trying to guess what the OP wants because
they ask a question with an improbable requirement, you don't know why
they want to do it and whether your answer has any relevance to their
real requirement which is left unstated.

This has just popped up on Inventor Customisation. I wonder if anyone has some free ready made code to solve his problem??
