Phil, I have another question:

In some older versions of Inventor, I've had an issue where sometimes, the "Export -> CAD Format" option is greyed out and inaccessible when working in a .idw file. I've had this happen in 2010 and 2012 for no apparent reason, and I was not able to fix it. Any idea what causes this and how to fix it?

I am still able to Save->Save Copy As-> and then choose .DXF or whatever I need.

Also, if we're talking about default options, the grey material on gradient grey background I think is terrible. I don't know what other users feel, but I always set mine back to blue solid color.
