I am trying to open a dwg in CAD 2000 format. When I click the file, a window pops up to select Open Shape File with a default of "hixeq.shx". After I select another because I dont have the hixeq, the drawing opens put immediately I get a window that indicates a fatal error and asks to continue or shutdown. After shut down it prompts to send Autodesk a message. I have sent this but I need a correction for this. Please help. Attached are screen shots of my issue.
Hi, Try opening the file like this.
1. Open Autosketch
2. File Open
3. change the file type to dwg
4. open options button
5. make sure the map to true type is checked
6. ok , pick your file in the explorer
7 open
