Did you close your dxf file that AutoCad created?  If the file is still open, it won't load into LC.

Bob@BobsShop - Been there done that.

Ok, I did close autocad, try to open with Lcam, but won't load any thing and see 2749.87 scale number in the blue screen

Save as V12 .dxf from AutoCAD and try that.
