An Amapi import question.

My file extension ended with, (.x), out of, Strata.  I haven't got the
free version of, Amapi that came with, Carrara 3 installed but you
would think as, Jean stated that, Carrara 3 would support the older
file format same as Strata supports, StrataVision files which are
becoming ancient.  Between, VectorWorks 10 and, Strata 3.9, that has
been an all cool thing to be able to do.
