Hi dunham,

ISODIM by Joseph E. Willis is a very good program. Where I work bought 5 licenses at $75 each 5 years ago.
It is super.
The only link I can find is:  http://www.freecadapps.com/swdetails.php?page=search&value=&orgvalue=&review=5736&rowcolor=fce08d
I think version 1.1 is dimensioning and text only.
Version 2.1 has all the pipe, valves, equipment, etc.
I searched CADDEPOT.COM & CADOPOLIS.COM without success. Maybe you can find the later version.
The author is:
    Joseph E. Willis
    12146 Pine St.
    Gramercy, LA. 70052
    United States
Perhaps you could contact him directly.

That 2.1 sound good but I can't seem to find it either.  I downloaded the ISO dim 1.1 and found his two email addresses on a file in the download, but neither went through.  I'll keep looking

Thanks

dunham,
I sent Mr. Willis a letter by snail mail on Monday. I asked him to reply via email. I'll  post as soon as I hear something from him.
I found the 2.1 demo in my files. I tried to email it to you but your company email filter wouldn't permit it.

I received an email from Mr. Willis.
He has moved:
    Joseph E. Willis
    3400 Chateau Blvd. apt 221
    Kenner, LA. 70065
    United States
He has upgraded the program:
                  Isometric Dimensions Version 3.0
                   w/Isometric Shapes Version 2.0
                    & Block Manager Version 2.0
He has raised the price:
    Single User License   $150.00(US)
He has a new email address:
   joseph_willis22@yahoo dot com
He sent me the attached file with the following instructions:
**INSTALLATION**
   The installation of "Isometric Dimensions v3.0" is very simple.
    (1) Copy the ISODIM.ZIP file into the directory that you want the program to be
    located in.  If that directory has not yet been created, then create it.
    (2) Use "WINZIP.EXE" or "7-ZIP.EXE" to unzip ISODIM.ZIP file contents into the
     directory that you previously selected.  Make sure when you unzip the file
     that you keep the sub-directories intact.
    (3) Start AutoCAD and use the "PREFERENCES" or "OPTIONS" command to add the
    directory that you selected for the program, to AutoCAD's support environment.
    If you installed the program into a directory that is already in the AutoCAD
    environment, then you can skip this step.
    (4) If you plan on modifying the menu files then you need to add the BMP
    sub-directory to the AutoCAD support environment
    as explained in step 3.
    (5) Use the "MENULOAD" command to browse to the program directory and load the
    "ISODIM.CUI" file.  The toolbar "ISODIM.DIMENS" will display in the upper left
    hand corner of the screen.  The program is now fully loaded.
    Installation is now complete.
I haven't tried it out yet, but I'm sure it's gonna be great.
