My father used In*A*Vision a while back (for LAN layout drawings),
but has now converted to the (IMHO) much better program Micrografx Designer.
All his old drawings are still in In*A*Visions rather uncompatible
format, In*A*Vision doesn’t have the ability to store the drawings
in another format, and other programs can’t convert from that format either.
HELP! (He really hates the idea of having do redraw all of them in Designer)
So, are there any good convertion programs that can take care of this
problem?

And that worked perfectly!
I just renamed the .PIC files from the old In*A*Vision to Designer’s
.DRW ending, and read them in as regular Designer files…
Thanks a lot!
