Problems in autocad 2012 when opening files from autocad 2011 saved as 2000

It could be, Debora.


When talking to AutoDesk, no matter if it's in your files or not, they should be able to tell you what the issue is that's causing this in the first place, so that it can be rectified (hopefully). If it does not behave the same in versions of ACAD, something has changed in recent ACAD versions to cause this.

If you do not get the answers you need, escalate your issue within the AutoDesk chain of command until you do. Don't settle for "The problem is your files". Make them tell you why different versions are behaving differently. Please do let us know what happens!

Jaberwork, sometimes it could happen, because we work above topografic files (generally created on another software)

To minimize this, we have a dwt file created by me and we use this as the first step exactly because if we change any other file that cames from outside, we don't know were they're created.
In this file especifically, the file was edited in autocad. As it is only a base of axis (used as xref) we don't have any interferece. It was created and used only in Autocad 2011 and 2012. But always saved as Autocad 2000...

Well, we changed the reseller here and the new one is trying to find what is happening anda talking to Autodesk. Let's see what's happening... They're looking for elements that could be created in another software and are widespread to our files. Let's see... I'll post the answer when they find it. And the solution.
