    How to View 2007 inventor files

    I have several 2007 inventor models and drawings.  I don't have Autodesk, but I downloaded the 2008 Autodesk View since that was the oldest version available for download.  I have Solidworks 2012 also.  Neither of these options allow me to view 2007 Inventor files.  Does anyone know how I can view these?

    I would download IV2012 and run it in demo mode, good for 30 days. You can always export it out to a neutral file format and import into Solidworks.

    Why doesn't the viewer work? Any errors? What happens?

    What are you hoping to do with these files?
