You can use either:
SAVEAS command
or
DWGCONVERT command.

If you do not have a newer AutoCAD version, just 2017, you can grab the free viewer that also converts file here to do it yourself https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/dwg-trueview/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How...

both are explained in HELP: in case you don't know, AutoCAD2017 uses the 2013DWG file format (there is no such format as 2017dwg).

Hi pendean

Thanks for the reply. Actually someone gave me that dwg file. I cannot open it in 2017. The help document you sent seems not opening. Can you help me to convert the file so I can open that file in 2017 

Thanks

Thanks for quick response. Is it possible to convert that. I have no idea about autocad. I don't have laptop to convert. That's why I am asking to convert and attach it in post. It's a humble request. I am not from this background but I am posting behalf of someone. If you do it. It will be a great help. Thank you in advance
