Hi,

>> I AM UNABLE TO MIGRATE MY FILES FROM Autocad2016 to 2017

Please describe what you try and what you get as result.

By default there is nothing to migrate, the dwg-format for 2016 and 2017 is the same, so just open the file, ... or does that not work? If not .. what messages do you get then?

HI @ch_pradeep,

What file format did you save your AutoCAD 2016 files in?  If it is an older version you can batch convert them to the current 2013 format using DWGCONVERT inside of AutoCAD or DWG Trueview.

If the files are already in 2013 then there shouldn't be a problem opening them in 2017. Can you attach a couple for me to investigate?
