dwg to shp conversion is typically related to export of curves and vectors from DWG drawings to one of the many 'shape' files that feature .shp extension.

The tables with software actions are a good pointer for what a certain program does with various file types and often may give users a good hint how to perform certain file conversion, for example the above-mentioned dwg to shp. However, it is not perfect and sometimes can show results which are not really usable because of how certain programs work with files and the possible conversion is thus actually not possible at all.
