Conversion from Abaqus 6.9-2 to 6.8-3
Conversion from Abaqus 6.9-2 to 6.8-3
(OP)
We have a whole set of computers in our office running Abaqus 6.8-3 and one more powerful computer running version 6.9-2. When I load a .cae file onto the one running 6.9 it gives a message that it needs to convert the file to the newer version, and does this without any issue. Unfortunately if I run an analysis using the computer using ver 6.9 and then try to move those files to a computer running 6.8-3 it just says that the files are from a newer version of Abaqus and cannot open them.
Is there any way to down-convert .odb or .cae files from 6.9 to 6.8-3?? Are there external conversion tools that can do this?

Surely you just upgrade all the machines to the same level.

I fully understand, I've had similar experiences with obstinate, know it all , power mad, look down their noses at you dumb nut and bolt engineers from IT staff, who are clueless about the requirements for the smooth running of FEA software. The last time I had trouble from an IT guy I stated I would inform the company directors why multi-million pound programs were being held up, the IT guy immediately backed down!
