I’m new to the forum and I would expect this question’s likely been asked a few times. Anyway, 2 decades ago (I know) I was using an old cad program ( Xcad) for some guitar design work, running on windows 95!, it was a pain because it used a dongle on a parallel printer port to work. So things moved on I got Rhino.
Thing is I’d like to use some of the earlier files for reference but. xdw is not supported and there’s no parallel port for a dongle these days to open using the old program, if I could run it.
I just wondered if anyone out there had a similar problem and if they managed to sort a solution?
If I’m not mistaken Sescoi bought Xcad and rolled it into WorkNC about 15 years ago. I might be able to open those files for you. Send me a file tomorrow at cncdanb@gmail.com and I’ll give it a try. I believe that file type is still supported. The extension looks really familiar.
WorkNC will be able to open that file, but I will need a password. It looks like you saved the file with password protection. I’ve sent this request to your inbox as well.
