export to acad 2000

[rs101]

HELP!!!! sorry, HELP, please.

dear autodesk...
i would like to 'export to acad2000' so that a consultant can use my file to update their files. i would like to know why i cannot and what i need to do to fix it so that i can. when i try to do this operation, i get:
Command: _AecExportToAutoCAD2000
ARX_ERROR: eOwnerNotSet

i have tried binding and exploding, purging, aecobjexplode, all to no avail.

in November 2005 when i asked more or less the same question i finally ended up with this:
"I could not reproduce the errors exactly as your log...but there was no output as expected, so I have filed a defect with your data. Will follow-up when I know something more. Thank you for the data files and additional details.

nothing has happened since...that i know of.


if there is not a reliable way to 'export to...', share with previous versions, etc. that will work every time, then shouldn't we at least get some troubleshooting documentation that lists the error or error string with possible causes? currently there is no way for me to tell what the problem is that is preventing me from accomplishing this task which means there is no way for me to fix it. arg! i cannot believe that everyone out there has stopped communicating with clients that do not use the latest software available.

of my drawings for contractors.
