that included an AutoCad .dxf graphics filter. If you have a copy of
Word/Office 97 or earlier, you can custom install the DXFIMP32.FLT file
from that into your Office XP's "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\Grphflt" folder. Alternatively, you might try using a graphics
program such as Irfanview, Photoshop, or CorelDraw to convert the
AutoCad file to another format that is supported by Word.
