    Default All Objects are invisible when I open an "old" DWG in AutoCAD 2007

    i opened an older drawing file to make a simple revision to the design
    the drawing has disappeared - if i list all invisible is noted on each object - help -
    does anyone know how to recover the drawing so that I can view and edit it

    Do you have access to one of the vertical products, ADT, LDT, etc.?

    I don't think there is a way to fix it in Vanilla AutoCAD.

    I stand corrected. It looks like you can use lisp in vanilla AutoCAD to make the entities visible again.
