Is there a way to export Revit walls into Acad that has smart walls? Or can acad turn Revit walls into smart walls?

I dont think that there is a way for REVIT to create AEC content (as used in ADT or ACAD).

You can export to an IFC model. I have not used this function, but from what i hear this will let you colaborate with other programs (other then ACAD), and still share the parametric imformation (or 3d) information.

Like i said i dont have much experience with it, so anyone that does would be great to jump in now.....

Smart walls? Are we talking actual Revit or ADT objects that "know" they are walls? Unfortunately, no. AutoCAD is just lines, circles, blocks, etc... nothing "intelligent" about the AutoCAD data and it can't create intelligent data. 3D objects, yes... not intelligent or "smart" data.
