3d DXF file import to SolidWorks 2003

Posted by Michael on March 31, 2004 at 15:42:05:
We use a circuit board layout program call UtliBoard that can show a 3d model of the populated circuit board in the Utliboard enviroment. If you want to exprot the 3d mechanical data the only option is to use a 3d DXF file format.
I can open the 3d DXF file in AutoCad 2002 but cant import it to solidworks or export from Autocad in a format that solidworks can read.
any ideas as how to get the file into solidworks as a part??
