AutoCAD to Visio

[JoAnn Paules [MVP]]

Is there a file format that can be used to edit an AutoCAD drawing in Visio?
Even if it exploded it into little bitty segments.

Used to be able to use IntelliCAD to edit the embedded object. I don't
think that it works in the latest versions of Visio.

You probably need to edit the file externally now.

Actually I had my husband play with Visio while I did as well. He found the
answer. Import the .dwg, right-click, CAD document (?), convert. When I did
that, it exploded the drawing into something I can edit. Now I just need for
the guys who created the spec that we have to find the AutoCAD drawing they
used. I think my task was easier.
