A-Cad Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Our company is switching from 06 to 09 within the next couple weeks, but Ive been testing it lately and have had some problems with certain xrefs. I cleaned up all our base dwgs, but certain dwgs that have these base dwgs xref'd in them dont open. It says it may have incorrect or corrupt information. Heres the wierd part.. I can open those base dwgs just fine in 09, but if I open up a different dwg with that base xref'd in.. It tells me its corrupt. I played around with it for several hours and I narrowed it down to 4 base dwgs, but I have no idea whats wrong with them. They open fine in 09, but for some reason if another dwg has it xref'd in, it doesnt work. Hope this made sense, and hopefully someone knows whats wrong.

BOB'27T Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Did you do all the updates?? This is a MUST! We had many problems with ours until we loaded the update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myself Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 yeah, something very similar had happened to me, but then was related with "-scalelistedit", i could open de drawaings with no problems, except if those drawings were being used as xref's on other files. But in your case i bet with the others to the updates, i've never had those problems because i installed the updates right after the autocad 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
