Question
I ran across a forum article where you mentioned batch converting CADKEY .prt files to AUTOcad .dwg files, using a .lst file.  You wouldn't happen to have a copy of that complete article?  I really need to do this.  I have CADKEY 7.2. Thanks

Answer
Mark,

The article i wrote 4 years ago only pertains to the CadKey versions 97-99 which basically covers the use of the 'CDE Execute' to read a text list (this file will consist of your all the *.prt library to be translated). This can be easily generated from the notepad and then rename the file extension with *.lst. The procedure is simple, the hard part is probably generating the *.lst file...but that could also be done thru batch dump process in DOS. Hope this helps!
