I just started using 3rd PlanIt a couple weeks ago. Much to my surprise and pleasure, it is a very robust CAD program in it's own right. It's very capable of 3-D design, though I don't know how it's 3-D features compare to the more expensive CAD programs available to the commercial market. <br /> <br />But to the point (and I am away on business, so I can't verify this), I believe 3rd PlanIt is FULLY EXPORTABLE in the AutoCAD format. So I would assume one would be able to export its complete library of track items to AutoCAD. <br /> <br />Go to www.trackplanning.com for a free demo and the true scoop. For what it's worth, I would think that even being fully proficient in AutoCAD, you may like what 3rd PlanIt has to offer- it has some really cool model railroad specific tools that make it a breeze to design even a complex layout easily with CAD-like precision. <br /> <br />JMHO, <br />Barry
