how do u do that?

flatten the layers first

pete - ill give that a go now, cheers

3cm - my version is a full version, one at uni is lt

is it full version or an LT?

any 3d objects?

odd,

open drawing - check layers are in the original drawing, all on, non locked etc

file - save as - AutoCAD 2000/LT2000 drawing (*.dwg)

that WILL work, if it doesn't its an error somewhere in your settings that you have changed

when i clicked on the down arrow to the layers, only layer 0 was present.

corsalad? how do you mean, not visible or not there at all?

Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 4:00 and then
bring it to me. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing.

If it's really a rush job, run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to
inquire how it's going. That helps. Or even better, hover behind me,
advising me at every keystroke.

Always leave without telling anyone where you're going. It gives me a
Chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.

If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books, or supplies, don't open
the door for me. I need to learn how to function as a paraplegic and
opening doors with no arms is good training in case I should ever be
injured and lose all use of my limbs.

If you give me more than one job to do, don't tell me which is
priority. I am psychic.

Do your best to keep me late. I adore this office and really have
nowhere to go or anything to do. I have no life beyond work.

If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. If that gets out, it
could
mean a promotion.

If you don't like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular
in conversations. I was born to be whipped.

If you have special instructions for a job, don't write them down. In
fact, save them until the job is almost done. No use confusing me with
useful
information.

Never introduce me to the people you're with. I have no right to know
anything. In the corporate food chain, I am plankton. When you refer
to
them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them.

Be nice to me only when the job I'm doing for you could really change
your life and send you straight to Engineers' hell.

Tell me all your little problems. No one else has any and it's nice to
know someone is less fortunate. I especially like the story about
having
to

pay so much taxes on the bonus check you received for being such a
good
Engineer.

Wait until my yearly review and THEN tell me what my goals SHOULD have
been.

Give me a mediocre performance rating with a cost of living increase.
I'm not here for the money anyway.

Tell me to hurry up and finish so you can tell me about the changes
you
decided on at a meeting yesterday.

i tried that yesterday, but when i opened it, all the layers were missing!

any solutions?

yes as above, save as an autocad 2002 version

just save it down, look in the drop down box whe doing save as.

not sure mate, never used autocad,
solid edge all the way!

Hi,

I have autocad 2005 at home and need to create a file in this, but open it in autocad 2002 lt, which they have at uni.

Any ideas how i can do this?

Cheers
