Try a different program to see if it is SU or Blender.
Somebody suggested the German LTplus_SketchUP plug-in to export from SU to DXF and that worked importing into 3DC-Pro, albeit the objects textures not showing.
It's in the 3DC court now.
Thanks for all your advice !

Hi Rich !
Don't know what happened to my previous reply, so here it is again:
It is a problem with importing exported from SU DAE, 3DS and DXF files into Blender and 3DC, I have also asked a question about in their forums.
A SU member suggested trying to re-import them into SU which worked but not at the same quality as their SU originals.
Before I spend £ 330 I must be sure that it does what I want to use if for !
Having tried to buy it before am being told by it's web site forms that a page can not be found, which a support person tells me is a known to them problem with IE8 and would I try using another web browser ?
They must be joking, having to do that just to buy SU-8 Pro !!!
Was hoping that somebody else here could shed some light on why it is not working while I wait for an answer elsewhere.
I just HATE advertising and have it turned off wherever possible, being of no interest to me and an intrusion into what I am doing on-line ! 
The same when watching TV, turning off the sound when they show !

Images can be downloaded for use in one's own programs.
Using them forinstance in a Train Simulator route's scenery after forinstance exporting it into 3DC for export into say Railworks, can it then be distributed with the route ?

If I pay for something then I expect it to work without having to use other programs.
And I can do without adverts in my threads, thank you.
Any more and I am off !

Testing the 8 hours Sketchup-8 Pro before spending £ 330 I am trying to import an exported by it DAE and a 3DS file into Blender and neither show.
I am not the only one: http://www.blender.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19972&sid=5f3000f493069b6809b922cbbc6924e7
Help will be appreciated.
