3D readers, Cad readers, All

I get a lot of e-mails that have attachments that are some time Cad drawings and some are 3D drawingsand others I can't open them. Can you recommend a free program I can download to open such files or an inexpensive one. I just need to see what my client are sending me.

Sincerely,

Tried This ??

The AutoCAD Drawing Viewer link below should work for CAD drawings but for anything else, as requested by the other responsed, it would sure help if you give the file extension of the files in question.

Or here's another one that should work as well.

Hope this helps.
