DOE-2 INP file to Radiance RAD file

Dear all,

Has anyone tried to utilize geometry information from an existing
eQUEST/DOE-2 model's input file to create geometry for a Radiance
daylighting model in the *.RAD file format? (without having to build the
geometry again from scratch I mean)

Theoretically I could come up with the following route but haven't tested it
yet:
Export *.INP to *.IDF using DrawBDL ?> open the IDF file using OpenStudio in
Sketch UP --> export to Radiance file format *.RAD using the Sketch Up
plugin SU2RAD.

Any ideas? Thanks,
