[mapguide-users] Is there any way to conver dwg files to sdf?

[Andrew DeMerchant]

I'd tried all of that. I suspect that maybe it's the fact that you've 
got the full registered one. I'd never been able to get the preview ones 
working, so I was afraid to go and buy the full one.

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 ?
