The only free CAD program I know of is FreeDraft (did I get the name right?). It's not even close to being usable right now, so don't get your hopes up. There are a few commercial ones available, but only Microstation CAD from Bentley System seems suitable for commercial use and it's very expensive. Ofcourse, I've given up my search for a decent CAD program for quite sometime now, so maybe you might find something better. Cort [EMAIL PROTECTED]
