MacDraw ClarisDraw AppleWorksDraw

I understand that AppleWorks can coexist with iWork and that it still works with newer versions of MacOS. But I don't want to go farther down a dead-end road if iWork isn't going to pick up the Draw capability of AppleWorks, I'd like to know where to turn next. I don't want to save my drawings as .jpg, .jif, .pdf, or as any other not-easily-editable format. I need to be able to edit them just as I have in ClarisDraw and AppleWorks. ** I'm looking for a new application that can easily import ClarisDraw and AppleWorks drawings, or at least an application that works like ClarisDraw and AppleWorks Draw. **
I actually have more drawings in ClarisDraw format than AppleWorks Draw. They don't import cleanly from ClarisDraw to AppleWorks. It can be done, but it's not efficient and clean. I don't want to go to the trouble of converting more drawings from ClarisDraw to AppleWorks if this is a dead-end.
If I can't find something to carry these drawings forward in an editable format, then I would like to start fresh with an application that is as simple and easy to use as these. Someone told me that the old MacDraw/ClarisDraw format was covered by another software product (not AppleWorks) years ago, but I don't know if that is still true.
So, two questions: (1) Can anyone tell me the name of the application that can directly handle or cleanly import ClarisDraw drawings? (2) Can anyone recommend a new/different drawing application that works essentially just like ClarisDraw and AppleWorks Draw?
Thanks.
