The person who created the projects has moved to another company. V8.1 was installed on my system and I have a key, but not for 9.0. Is there a way to access the files and/or import into AutoCAD dwgs. The demo version of 9.0 doesn't let me use any pertinent commands. Is there a way to do any of this legally/within the license my company has for 8.1?<BR /> Thanks for any help you can provide.</T></DIV> Thu, 06 Oct 2005 14:31:03 GMT Anonymous 2005-10-06T14:31:03Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Help-with-8-1-9-0-and-dwgs/m-p/57912#M29385 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>On very infrequent occassions, I need to access files created with 9.0.
