Skipp, you've probably already found sites like https://acad-block.com/people-cad-block ... side-view/ where you can download and make the DataCAD symbols that you need. Hope this helps.

Thank you - now i have to discover how to load the template into my dataCAD program. I see it is in dwg format for autoCAD.

Can you tell me how to convert it to dataCAD symbol file?

Import the DWG into DataCAD, modify your drawing as needed, CTRL+T to open the Symbol Browser, then use Save Symbol.

There is a macro SYMTMPLT that will write out symbols from a file to a template, putting them into a directory that you select.
