I made my model in Mlcad, but I can't get it into LeoCad. Can someone tell me how to do this?
Well, even though I'm new to digital legos, this was the easiest part for me to figure out. You just click File>>Save As>> and then choose your destination you want to save it to, for example, >>Desktop. You then open LeoCad (Remember to keep it in it's folder!!!! Otherwise it can't process the parts!!!!), go into File>>Open, and change the Files of Type (underneath File Name) to LDraw Files (*.dat;*.idr;*.mpd), and look in the Desktop in your file open, and then, once you find it, just click on it and then click open. Hope it helps!

P.S.- If that dosen't explain it, you can ask me to send you an email and I'll email a tutorial(without sound, to make the file smaller) of me opening it.
Or you can save your model and drag it over Leocad (and let go of course). It'll open the model in it automatically. 
Hmmm, I never tried that. It sound a bit easier than my way. It's a few steps quicker.
