    Hi all,

    I have a file saved in 2009 cad, but I have 2006 at home.
    Is there any way I can change the '09 file to open in '06?

    Thanks

    open it in 2009 and 'save as' there is a drop down list of file options, ie 2004, 2007 .dxf etc

    You need DWG TrueConvert (it might be called TrueView now). It's free and I don't think you need CAD on your system to work it. Look for it on the internet.

    Download DWG true view 2009 from the autodesk website. its free and should sort out all your conversion problems.
