    Have a look at wotsit.org and look for the formats for DWG and DXF (the last one is actually a text format, which might be easier to start with).
    I don't think it's likely that anyone will give you any code, since it's quite a lot of work to write convertors for CAD and GIS applications.

    AutoCAD and VB

    AutoCAD is a pretty heavy programme. It now comes with VBA which can be used to programme it or you might try using the 'sendkeys' command from VB.
    Alternatively you could create a dxf file (a simple text file) from VB which will display in AuotCAD (and other cad programmes).
