Autocad 14
Autocad 14
(OP)
We recently upgraded the operating system in our company to windows xp, and now the autocad system we use will no longer open drawings made by autocad 2000 or above. We work with outside sources and they do the drawings in their systems, save a copy in autocad 14 and email to us, and in the past we have been able to open and work with them, but now we get the error "Drawing file was created in an incompatible version". Has anyone had this problem and if so how was it corrected, short of upgrading to a new Autocad system?

What happens if you create a drawing in R14, email it to your associate, have him/her save it as an R2000 with a new name, then save it as an R14 with another new name and email it back to you.
What happens if you don't use email, but use floppy or CD?
What happens if you zip the drawing and email the zip file.
