Forgive me if you already know this, but Stardraw can open DWG files directly: just select File | Open.

What are the EXACT steps that you take when you 'import' the DWG?

It may be helpful to see the DWG - can you attach it to your next post as a zipfile?

Kind regards,

There are two issues here.  The first is that you are inserting the .DWG as an object, what you actually should be doing is opening the .DWG.  To open a .DWG file you need to click on Open from the File menu. Once you have selected the .DWG you want to open you will need to define the unit of measurement from the 'Define DWG/DXF Units window.

The .DWG should open in Stardraw however (and here's the second issue): Stardraw currently supports .DXF and .DWG's up to and including release 2005.  The file you posted is an AutoCAD 2007/LT .DWG.  Please save the drawing as a R2005 or earlier .DWG - in AutoCAD and it should open in Stardraw with no problems.
