"Warning! Input file is incorrect or memory full...&quo

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi all- I'm having a bit of a problem opening a file. Here's the info:
Computer: Mac OSX v10.3.9, 1GHz Power PC G4 1GB DDR SDRAM.
ArchiCAD 10 v1187.
File: 1.4mb, simple model of a stair. I believe it was created in AC7...

When attempting to open file in AC10 v1187 I get "Warning! Input file is incorrect or memory full. Not enough room in heap zone."

My guess is that AC10 is unable to open AC7 file?
I am able to open file in AC9 v1965.

Any ideas?
Thanks

This you should find in the documentation:
I think AC10 can only open AC9 files, but not earlier ones.
You need to open these earlier files in AC9, save them in AC9 format, and open that file in AC10.
