OPEN 2205 DWG ON 2002?

OPEN 2205 DWG ON 2002?

(OP)
hi,

We use 2002 in our office and seem to be unable to open files from our clients saved in release 2005. We aren't in a position to ask the client to "back-save" for us.
Anything we can do?

Thanks,

sundemon

RE: OPEN 2205 DWG ON 2002?

I believe there is DWG viewer availible form Autodesk that is a free download but this only allows you to view or print not to modify.  Otherwise, You need to either upgrade your ACAD version (expensive) or request the client to save/send the file in 2000 format.

Not much help;

John
