    Exclamation BATCH DRAWING CONVERTER save_as R14 in Read Only mode

    Hi, when I use BATCH DRAWING CONVERTER to save dwg from 2004 to R14, the files become in Read Only mode when opening with R14.
    There is no Check mark on Read-Only attribute properties (in Explorer).
    I have Windows XP.
    I didn't see any option in BATCH DRAWING CONVERTER or in Autocad for this issue.

    Is anyone know if it's a bug in BATCH DRAWING CONVERTER? If yes how to fix it?

    thanks
    Mustang

    Not knowing where you are opening these converted files from
    I offer this. If from a CD this is typical as most files written to CD
    do indicate that they are read only.
    If not take a look into this:

    ATRIB SYNTAX

    Displays or changes file attributes.

    ATTRIB [+R | -R] [+A | -A] [+S | -S] [+H | -H] [[drive:][path]filename] [/S]

    + Sets an attribute.
    - Clears an attribute.
    R Read-only file attribute.
    A Archive file attribute.
    S System file attribute.
    H Hidden file attribute.
    /S Processes files in all directories in the specified path.
    Be your Best,

    It's from my C: drive & the attributes are clear.
    I think that BATCH DRAWING CONVERTER program has a bug...
