Mick, Thanks for the suggestion, they use a European CAD program and won't put any effort into anything else I've tried... I took the time to learn it but we are growing and i need a system/workflow that employee's can use and that can grow with us. I hope CA can be the solution.
Unfortunatly I'm a CA novice could you possibly explain your other two comments? Or point me to another post
"but you can easily make Material libraries by pointing CA at a Folder and it will create the materials and place them in your User Folder."
"I am not sure if you imported symbols , say from sketchup that they would work exactly like CA's Cabinets , but the Experts may have more insight on that too...."
Thanks, Mitch
