Exporting to Old Version without Access to New Version

[EmilyArch]

I have a 2022 file that I need to open with VW 2019. I do not have access to VW 2022 or know anyone who does. Of course, I know that the ideal scenario would be to open the file with 2022 and export it to an older version, but I do have access to VW 2022. Am I just out of luck? Or is there a way to save this file to the appropriate format from 2019?

If you can post the file here someone will save it back to VW2019 for you.

If you can attach the file here on the forum, usually someone will convert it for you

in a recent time frame. If it is under NDA you could ask the VW Support.

 

(If it is a file from a VW student version, commercial users will not be able to open it.

Same for files created in a pirated copy of VW)

Oh, I'm so glad to know it! How reassuring it is to have a community of users who help each other out.

 

I actually got in touch with VW, who suggested a trial of 2022 so that I can export down. If for any reason that doesn't work, I'll absolutely post it here. Thank you!

 

Cheers,

 

Emily

Hello all, if someone could kindly convert these 2 files from 2022 to 2019 versions I would be most grateful. My trusty old computer can't run the newer versions of Vectorworks so i need to purchase a new Mac (one day...) to upgrade. Thank you very much in advance.2022 03 22 Concept Plan Tyrwhitt Drake.vwx

I desperately need some help to convert this Vectorworks file from 2023 to 2020. 

much appreciated anyone's help! Thank you

I'm not able to open it.   First I get the message that it was created with an older version.  Click OK.  Then I get a message that the file is unrecognizable.  But I do see a preview in Finder.

 

Maybe tech support can do it.

[Pat Stanford]

design option v2020.vwxIt opened for me. So here is the 2020 version.

 

 

[michaelk]

@Pat Stanford I just deleted the file and downloaded it again and it opened on the first try.  

 

Must have gotten corrupted in the first download.

 

 

[svas]

@Pat Stanford Thank you so much!
