The dwg´s are AutoCad 2009 and the only way to use them is to explode all and purge. <BR /> The translators I used are set exactly the same in 12 as in 13. <BR /> Anyone recognize this?</T></DIV> Wed, 09 Dec 2009 08:34:45 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/AC-13-crash-if-I-attach-DWG-2009/m-p/153910#M17343 Anonymous 2009-12-09T08:34:45Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/AC-13-crash-if-I-attach-DWG-2009/m-p/153911#M17344 Autodesk has a free program called DWG TrueView.<BR /> In this program you can convert DWG files to earlier DWG versions.<BR /> You may try to convert it to DWG 2004 and work with that.<BR /> Just an idea.
