I have the same problem.
I would like to import a .cdb file ( from fluent) in workbench , is it possible?

Thanks!

Something like the following Command Snipet in WB should do it:

/PREP7
/inp,filename,sfe
/SOLVE

If you mentioned about cmdb (Meshing) not cdb (Mechanical APDL), you can import by File->import.
If your cmdb file contains CFX-Mesh data created by release 10, you should import by release 11 first and save as release 11 data.
