What's on the CD?

A CD included with this book contains a wealth of utilities, symbols libraries, and sample programs that can greatly enhance your use of AutoCAD. The CD includes the drawing files from all the exercises throughout this book so that you can pick up an exercise anywhere in the book, without having to work through the book from front to back. You can also use these sample files to repeat exercises or to just explore how files are organized and put together.

Further, the CD even includes a trial version of AutoCAD 2005, in case you don't have access to the software. For readers who want to learn more about customization, you'll find three chapters that cover ActiveX and additional information on VBA.. The CD also additional includes 3D utilities and a 3D parts library. See the inside back cover for a more extensive rundown of what's available on the CD.

Warning  

AutoCAD now allows side-by-side installation of AutoCAD 2005 with earlier releases. However, if you purchase an upgrade version of AutoCAD 2005, you must remove the previous version of AutoCAD within 60 days.
