KDR Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I am running version 9 (I know old), and the educational version. I haven't had any problems with it until recently. When I go to open up an old file (made in version 9) it tells me that it was made from an older version (which it hasn't) and won't open the file and closes the program completely. I've tried re-installing the version 9 software, but no luck. Is there something I'm missing? Does a mysterious upgrade occur with each re-install? I'm getting extremely frustrated.

Jim_Allen Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 WOW V9 I am willing to bet that VW will not support 9 anymore and the answer will be you need to upgrade :-( Kevin?? - a challenge. Do you remember 9?? :-) Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 what version of VW 9 are you using? What's the exact error message? What is the file size? Quote Link to comment
KDR Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 I know I should upgrade, but there are a few other things I need to "upgrade" first. It's version 9.0.1 (REALLY OLD I KNOW!) and it's only about 2K, but it would be nice to modify that. I guess what is ultimately happening is that the error message states that the version I am trying to open is from a newer version than the current version I have (v.9). You click "ok" and the whole program closes without any real explanation or willingness to try and import it. I'm going to have an engineer read the code and see if at one point in time (when I was delusional), I saved it on someone else's computer, with a different version. That would be the only idea.

Guest Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 If the file is only 2k, then the file has become corrupted and the data is likely to not be recovered. In VW 9, the error message you are receiving could mean what it says, but also a corrupt or unrecognizable file. What OS are you using? You should update to 9.5.3 to ensure you have the latest version of VW 9. You can download all the updates at nemetschek.net/downloads Quote Link to comment
