Does anyone know how to convert a datacad file to .drw format?

I could use Autocad as an intermediate step.

What program uses the .DRW format?

It is used by Corel Draw and Appleworks and other similar programs.
I do not know what formats those types of programs accept but we have a client who has requested files in that format.

I very much doubt that you can do this directly. They have to be able to tell you what file types they can import -- DWG or DXF or JPG -- something like that would be possible.

It looks like (from Corel's website) that CDraw 6 can import PDF files, though I don't think this is what WK3 is looking for. Maybe take a trawl through their forums and post the question there?
