AutoCAD file format versions
AutoCAD file format versions
(OP)
All,
Is there any way to tell what version a dwg file is saved as without having the higher version? I'm using AutoCAD 2006 and lately when I've tried to open files from a couple different sources I get a message stating "Drawing file is not valid". Just wondering if it's time to get an upgrade and if so what version I would need to jump to.
Thanks,
Steven
