OK. Am trying this by sending it to someone who has VW 10. Hope it works. I don't have VW10 myself - any suggestions for doing this without having to do this in the future? Does the Mac edition of VW give you the option of saving to any earlier version then?

Thanks for the reply, but I don't get this option in the 'Export' tab. I can export as a whole host of other file types, but it only offers me Vectorworks 10 and nothing before that. Perhaps it does give you this option on a Mac (wish I'd bought one) but not on my PC.

I am sending VW files created in VW 11.5.0 (Landmark) in Windows XP to a colleague who uses VW 9.5 (Architect) on a Mac. At present he can't open them - his machine won't recognise them as VW files. I have tried exporting my files as VW 10 but I can't export as any versions before that. I can share files if I export as a DWG and he then imports them, but this isn't ideal as the layer information is lost. Please, can someone tell me how I can export my files in a form that can be read by a Mac running VW 9.5? I'll be eternally grateful...
