Hi Folks, I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on something for me. I'm trying to import a sketchup model into Revit 2009. I create a new mass, but when I try to import the skp file, it just says 'can't open c:/house.skp' Has anyone come across this problem before or has any suggestions? thanks, Gareth

Hey Typoon...when you export the skp model to dwg, are we then able to assign properties to the elements? i.e., walls are concrete, roof is wood?
