Why IGES when 3ds max can import DWG files?

Thanks for your your reply
The problem is that i can easily import the dwg files , but it doesnt render it as a solid I always see the whole thing with all the lines and not yet able to render it.
Am sure there is a way to render using dwg files immediatley but am still new to 3d max and up to now i didnt succeed
your help will be greatly appreciated and will save me lots of times
keep in mind that am using Mechanical desktop (dwg or dxf) which is very similar to solid works or inventor

This is your import settings during bringing your dwg into max: Geometry tab / Geometry Options box /
Curve steps and Surface deviation for 3D solids (use fractions for max smoothness - heavier model..)
