Does anyone know if it is possible to take .pdb (or similar) files into CAD software such as Microstation or even, at a push, SketchUp?

This maybe no help at all as I don't work with CAD, but I do use PDB files. You can just change the file to a .txt file and then open it in notepad (we do this when there is a simple problem to fix in the file) or similar, would that then allow you to convert the coordinates to a suitable format for opening in CAD? Otherwise, why not download one of the free .pdb visualisation programmes - I use pymol routinely.
