Mark,
Although this advice shown below was for SolidWorks, it should apply to Pro-E as well concerning the importing / exporting of files to Revit. For more information, also refer to this topic Can you use Inventor to build Revit content?: http://revitclinic.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/09/can-you-use-inv.html
"The last time I checked, the only 3-D CAD file format Revit could import from SolidWorks was ACIS (*.sat). ACIS files are based on solid modeling format produced by Spatial Technology, Inc. Information about Revit from AutoDesk is available on this link: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=10275191
Revit: Import/Export Capabilities - Revit Architecture supports a wide range of industry standards and file formats, including DGN, DWG, DWF™, DXF™, IFC, SAT, SKP, AVI, ODBC, gbXML, BMP, JPG, TGA, and TIF. In addition to transferring standard lines, arcs, and circles, Revit Architecture can also transfer complex 3D model geometry for use in programs such as Autodesk® VIZ or Autodesk® 3ds Max® software. This capability provides opportunities to create stunning photorealistic interior and exterior renderings.
To clarify, export the file from SolidWorks as an ACIS (*.sat) file, then import into Revit."

I'm trying to learn about REVIT. Ive been told that there needs to
be a go between software for these two, Pro/E and REVIT. Is that right?
Anyone in this group using REVIT at this point?
Thanks for any insight,
Mark Steffke
