Drawing created by a newer version of C3D

I posted about this a few months ago and never found a resolution but now I couldn't find the post I made to follow up. I have just been bit by this again....working along in C3D2012 SP3, make a number of changes to sheets in a sheet set, save each one, Publish in background, get an error saying to try again not using the background plot option, do so, plots fine but get a warning when opening one of the sheets I had just edited 15 minutes earlier that it has 2 errors and should be recovered. I responded No to cancel the open so the Publish routine could finish, a warning comes up saying the drawing was last saved in a newer version of C3D and all C3D commands would be disabled, publish completes. I close C3D2012, restart it and try to open that drawing, same deal, so I recover, finds 2 errors deletes one object, still can't use C3D commands. Rename backup from an hour earlier, open it, same errors!. Now this is a drawing I worked on without issue before running Publish. I cannot move this project to a newer version, and I know that I did not open this drawing in any version other than 2012. 

 

What the heck is going on to where it THINKS it was??? Any way to recover this so I can continue to work on it in 2012? I have a suspicion that when I tried to use the background plotting it used a newer version of the C3DAPI, except that it failed too quickly when I tried that so I don't think it ever made it that far in the queue.

It could have to do with a corrupted Xref. Audit or recover all your xrefs. You might also try detaching and reattaching them.

Tried that after a quick google search. No luck, I was hopeful there for a minute but...
