Revit Version Compatibility

Help!
I've been doing a project in Revit 2010, but i need to send it to someone who's using Revit 2009 for them to make some changes. However, Revit 2009 won't load the file if it's saved in a newer version. Is there any way (like in Autocad) to simply save the Revit file 'down' a version?

:eek: !!

Short answer, No. once you start a project in one version, you cant save down at all.

Unfortunately, Revit has NEVER had the ability to save backwards, even before Autodesk bought it.

You can try doing a IFC out, and import it back into Revit 2009, but there will be a certain amount of functionality/objects lost.

This is why you absolutely have to have an upfront meeting with all members of your project team to find out who has what version of whatever software.
