Xrefs not showing up

Xrefs not showing up

Xrefs not showing up

(OP)
Hello everyone

This is a strange one.  I am working with acad 2000, and the rest of the my coworkers are only working in 14.  In this particularly drawing file i have a xrefthat is supposed to be showing up, but my xref manger says it is unresolved.  the weird thing is that all my co-workers are able to open the drawing file up and see the xref w/o any problems.  the actual xref is saved in 14 format.
Please help (its very frustrating)

Thanks Juice

RE: Xrefs not showing up

Is attached on their drawings or "overlaid"?
Try changing the XREF to overlay on the R14 files.
That might be blocking you.

One test to do ... is to wait for everyone to go home.
Then open that same file with the r14 file XREF'd.
Does it open fine?
If so then chances are the R14 workstations are blocking your XREF. That's why you get the unresolved message.

Hope that helps.

Sorry in advance if it doesn't ...

RE: Xrefs not showing up

You may also look and see if the XREF uses "full path" or a "filename path" for its location. Your mappings to the location may be different on your computer.

RE: Xrefs not showing up

Hi,
is the SV "XLOADCTL" in AC2000? -> put the value on 2
Can you load the xref after saving as AC2000.dwg?
