If I remember correctly, there is a problem with Vue 6 and DXF files with 2D entities. Try to erase all such entities before you export. I've heard that this is a common problem with people exporting models to DXF from a CAD program (not just DataCAD). Until they (e-onsoftware) fix this, a workaround is to either import the DXF into Sketchup (Vue 6 can open Sketchup files), or, if you have DataCAD 12, export it to a 3DS file instead of DXF. I haven't been able to play with DataCAD's 3DS export very much yet (very busy with work lately), but I've heard that that it works well.
