As autocad. I have many 2D drawings, each drawing is a .DWR file. Is there any tool in the Drawing interface of Creo 12 to quickly combine many drawings into one DWR file? Thanks

No.

Why would you think there is a tool in Creo to manipulate Autocad drawings? Can you "combine" drawings in AUtocad in the way you want to? If so, then use AutoCAD.

In Toolkit you can Merge two Creo drawings.

 

extern ProError ProDrawingMerge (ProDrawing drawing, ProDrawing merge_drawing);
/*
 Purpose: Merge two drawing
 <P> 
 <B>NOTE:</B> After using ProDrawingMerge(), the handle to the second drawing is lost.
 Use ProMdlRetrieve() to get the handle again. 
 <P> 
 Input Arguments:
 drawing - drawing handle
 merge_drawing - The drawing handle to be merged.

 Output Arguments:
 none

 Return Values:
 PRO_TK_NO_ERROR - The function succeeded.
 PRO_TK_BAD_INPUTS - One or more input arguments was invalid.
 PRO_TK_GENERAL_ERROR - The function failed

Procedure of "merging" Drawings

1. Open a drawing.
2. Click Layout >
 
Import Drawing/Data. The Open dialog box opens.
3. Select the source file to merge into the current drawing. When you select a file, the source file is merged into the current (target) file.
4. Select additional source files to be merged, one at a time, to add additional sheets to the current drawing.

I am unable to understand why anyone would want to import AutoCAD Dwg files into Creo. However, you may use this facility available.

Hope this satisfies...
