If you're using the REVOLVE command on a PLINE or REGION, set your VIEWRES to something higher.
If you're using 3Dmeshes or surfaces, don't, see above.

| Either type VIEWRES at the command prompt or under OPTIONS->DISPLAY->DISPLAY RESOLUTION look for "Arc and Circle Smoothness" Set it to 2000 or 5000. |

Zip your file and post. It's a lot easier to diagnose with ability to
see it. |

It appears you are coming into the discussion groups via the HTTP
web side. Go to the Customer Files group at
http://discussion.autodesk.com/forum.jspa?forumID=126 and post
your file as below. Then come back to this group and leave a note
that your file is posted.
You should see a highlighted line of text to the middle right
that says "Post new topic". Click on that icon and a two text
boxes appear in center of the screen. Type in a subject line,
fill in your message and then at the bottom of the text box you
will see "Add an Attachment".
This will appear "Add an Attachment. Click "Browse" to add an
attachment. You are allowed only one attachment per post. We
encourage you to make your attachments as small as possible, and
enforce a 1 MB limit. "
Browse to your own computer location for the file (PLEASE ZIP if
at all possible; obviously some files will not zip smaller)
Once all is filled in, click on Attach file. Lest step is to hit
the "Post Topic" icon. You may have to leave the newsgroup and
come back to see your own post.

Are you using flat shading or gouraud shading. Flat shading will leave flats on a round solid. Gouraud is a more precise shading.
Hope this helps |

| Try setting surftab1 to a higher number (say 25) and then try revolving again. |
