Additional Information

Known Issues

Q: What do I need to run the program?

A: This program interacts with Microsoft Office® Excel® and therefore requires Excel® to be installed prior to using the program.

Q: What should I do if the CAD program or Drawing Central "freezes"?

A: If the CAD program or Drawing Central "freezes," an Excel® component might not get released. This is usually not a problem, but if it does become one, you can resolve it easily by rebooting your computer.

Q: What should I do if Drawing Central loses connection to Microsoft® Excel®?

A: This sometimes occurs after uninstalling a program. To fix this issue, use the Microsoft Office® documented "online repair" process.
