Hi,
I have searched the forums all over to find a fix for this error message but to no avail. I am using Autodesk Design Review 2012 with DWG True View 2012 and I am successfull in opening certain .dwg files but for others which have been created at the exact same period I get the error message stated in object.
Does anyone know of a clear method to resolve this issue?
Thanks for your input.

The DWG file works well on my machine (the same OS to yours). Could you please test more?
- Rename the DWG file, and test again.
- Copy the DWG file to another computer, and test again.
- Does the DWG file pop error every time?

You did open the file with Autodesk Design Review 2012 right so that it opens .dwf ?
Renaming the file and putting it to another location has already been tested and also having other users try to open it on their Work Station resulted in the same error message.
Note that I can open it with DWG TrueView with no problem but since I have Autodesk Design Review 2012 as the default application on my Work Station, it is always resulting in the error message.
