Importing AutoBad 2006 DWG Problems

Anonymous
Not applicable
Recently received DWG files from consultant. 2 of 3 appear to have no data on any layer or story. One is fine. One of the bad files is almost 1MB in size. Consultant resent in 2004 format--same results.
Have used Find & Select, Select All, differing Display Options all to no avail.
Any ideas.

Any 3D solids from ACAD?

Scale? Units? Zoom factor? Pspace/Mspace?

By setting up the Translators, there is actually an option to load ACIS solids from the DWG file (you might have to choose update in the dialog, to actually enable the option). But I assume not many consultants will send 3D Models...

Thanks for the help.
Turns out I was importing data from Model Space when should have been translating from Paper Space.
