LaserCAD 7.09 - Import DXF Crash [SOLVED]

Anyone else having this issue? When I attempt to import DXF files the entire program crashes.
DXF
Source = AutoCAD
Format = ALL (V12 to 2013)

Send me the file see if I can come up a solution. FYI, AutoCad DXF file keep changing and the LaserCad won't support it well. The best way is to let CorelDraw to handle the DXF file

Thanks for the quick response. I was able to find out what was causing it.

I had taken a DWG (scaled in Inches) and Inserted it into a New DWG (scaled in mm) [To convert Inch to mm. LaserCAD was importing the Inches scaled file as mm, causing tiny.]

When you insert to a DWG into a new one, it does so as a single piece. All my lines and shapes were one combined object. When trying to import it to LaserCAD as one combined object, it caused this crash.

To fix this, I deleted the single piece object and when inserting the DWG again, I selected the "Explode" check-box. Selecting this seems to make it keep all my original lines and shapes as separate pieces.
By doing it this way, now saving as DXF no longer causes crashing when importing to LaserCAD.
