Hey all im kinda new at this 3D stuff, is there anyway to convert a 3D block into a solid. I have a 3d drawing that i exported from Sketchup and i want to convert it into a solid and get the advantages that autocad has to offer. please help.

If it's a Block in acad terms, Explode it. You should still have the Sketch-up object. Whether or not that can be made into a solid, I've no idea - but I'd like to know.

Burst tends to be a little more gental.

I doubt that it is an acad-compatible block.
