A few months ago I wrote a summary of some CAD interchange file formats.
There is a copy of that summary that can be FTPed from
   ccu1.aukuni.ac.nz (130.216.1.5)
it is in the 
   /mac/architec
directory. It is a MS WORD 4 document, if you don't have access to a Mac
and Word let me know and I will arrange something you can handle? RTF?
