Coverting Drawings

I use AutoCad LT 2002. If I get a drawing created in a newer version of AutoCad, I can't open it. Is there a way to convert newer files to be able to be viewed in an older version of Cad ?

Not with your LT. Someone with a higher version program has to save it down
to 2000 format for you.

... or wait for autodesk's free converter next month.

... or buy cheap converter today from a 3rd party vendor you can find
through any internet search engine.

It's no big secret, the very public beta has been going on for months:

and you can still join if you want I believe or wait for this page for the
final product:
