Also Check our Jan '97 issue, where David Porter won one of our Best of Cheap 
Tricks awards for suggesting that besides CorelDraw, you can also use Hijaak Pro 
or Graphic converter Gold ($35 at CompuUSA) which allow you to export these 
schedules via DXF and import then into DataCAD). The reverse also works.

If you can export as plain text, you can also try importing in DataCAD using one 
of the non-proportional fonts (like ORIG2) that will preserve a one character to 
one space alignment so that your columns still line up.

P.S. For those who are able, questions like this can also be answered by going 
to the "links" footer web page below, then Cheap Tricks Indexes, pick a likely 
year, then use your "Find" command to look for "spreadsheet".
