Mark:

1. Go to File>GDL Objects>Open Object...
2. In the Open Library Item window, change "Enable:" to DWG File
3. Browse to the dwg file, select, and click on Open
4. The file will open as a GDL library part (this make take some time, depending on the file, similar to opening a dwg file)
5. Then go to File>Save As... to save the library part with a new name into the appropriate library
6. You can now place this part in your project using the Object Tool
