I've found that while I can't get ANY dwg's into MapGuide, thanks to 
DETE, I can get DWFs. You could try saving your dwgs as dwfs and then 
importing those. If all else fails, you could convert your dwgs to shape 
files - but that's obviously way more work to get it looking right.

In oder to reuse the data in MapGuide, Maybe you should load the DWG file into MapGuide server using MapGuide Studio .BUT, when I load the dwg file using the Studio, I always get the error message "initalize DETE failed. ", and I found the fact that many other guys get the same error. I reinstall all the MapGuide Serve and Studio many times and it did not work. If you know how to solve this problem,please tell me how. Many appreciate!

Maybe just like preversion of MapGuide(6.5), using the tool --sdfloader to conver the dwg file to sdf? where can I get the tool? Will it be OK to conver the DWG file to Sdf  which created by AutoCAD 2002 or latter version ?
