 I've never worked with AutoCAD 2007, or any similar application. I can get tutorial bits & pieces but need something a bit more structured, step by step to get me going. Where do I start anyway? I'm really excited but confused as I didn't realize how powerful & complicated the program is; & would appreciate help or guidance??? |

Welcome to CADFORUM.
You should have a buy a book for beginner I can suggest this:
http://www.amazon.com/AutoCAD-2007-LT-Experience-Required/dp/0470008776/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1202124500&sr=1-1 - http://www.amazon.com/AutoCAD-2007-LT-Experience-Required/dp/0470008776/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1202124500&sr=1-1
Or follow a course. ------------- Ing Arben.Allaraj http://cad-drafting-corner.blogspot.com |

 Thanx for your input Arben.AllarajI've launched a few local inquiries for the book & CD as amazon.com trades mainly outside of RSA borders; & the currency exchange rate US$ : ZAR of the book's purchase amount incl courier is not too favorable. The courier costs from abroad are pretty high ... probably scared of the lions in CapeTown suburbs  Take care |

Thanx for your advice bycher That's the last route I would prefer as I've had a bid of a nasty experience with 1:1 teachings. The main problem is to find a reliable a course / tutor. The reliable, more expensive ones target the corporate market's batches. Maybe some CD & book combo like the other person suggested? Take care |
