Insert XREF = ACAD Crash

I am running LDD 9 on Windows XP. Everytime I go to insert a STD DWG detail
for the City, it crashes ACAD. I have done an audit and purge in both the
drawing I am working on as well as the STD DWG detail. It crashes prior to
getting to the screen where it asks you the insertion point, scaling
factors, etc... Best I can do is get a recovery dwg as a result.

I went back and tried to perform this operation (xref a dwg) in LDD 8 and
had no problems whatsoever.

Is this a known issue or is there a solution or best guess out there ?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.

Further information :

Now that the STD DWG in question is part of the project DWG file, LDD 9
(Land Desktop Companion 2009) crashes upon every try to open the file.

Is there a dwg version that LDD 9 is incompatible with ?

Some kind of wierd issue that is only affecting LDD( and not LDD 8 ?

Further guesses based on this new info ??

I saw this in the C3D group and it may be related to your problem:

Thanks Jeff,

You got me on the right path. The DWG file I was working in was a 2007
file, as stated in the article you linked, but he xref file was not .. odd
how an xref in an earlier format kills it. Anyway, I eventually came across
a replacement AeccLand.dbx and AeccvBase.dbx file that AutoCAD put out,
where you replace your existing ones that fixes this error.

Were you ever able to figure this out? We are having a similar problem. If we insert an older Landdesktop 2006 drawing into Landdesktop 2009 it crashes. The drawings contain .SID files, and points. We did try the two patches (service pack 2.1 & civilOE_cs_files.exe) all to no avail.

 

Any help would be great.

Thank you.

Steve,

 

Are you trying to xref the older drawings in, or INSERTING a "block" of the older drawing and then exploding?
