Be careful. It's not supported and won't be in the current version
(9.3) Why? No surfaces in Vector 9.3 and what surfaces are supported
cannot be fully accessed. They can be moved about a bit with copy-
paste, and by dragging in modify mode, etc, but none of the NURB
modeling and editing capabilities are available in 9.3. Coming soon ;-
) For sure Trimmed surfaces,composite curves and probably some others
are funky in 9.3.

These pictures are from work that I have been doing for beta testing
and documentation development, none of these examples have
been "massaged" and "supplied" by the programmers for public
distribution.

I had not been aware that the IGES was implemented in 9.3. I
suspected it lately as the beta release that I am currently using
opens iges the same way. I just had not had a chance to test the
theory. Thanks. ;-)
