Unable to edit, move, or work with an object

I received a .dwg that had been converted from CADWorx Plant. I can open the file easily. When I click on an object such as the pipping. I am unable to edit or move it. How can I unlock it or have permission to edit it? Many of the other object I am allowed to edit, but the pipe I can not.

Very odd I can not move or edit the pipe in this drawling. I have AutoCAD 2021 downloaded and that is it.

Hi,

Since your drawing contains proxy objects and these objects only show outlines and they are not editable. The solution is to open the drawing in the original application and insure to SAVE AS Autocad . in this way all proxy objects contain in the drawing will be converted to block .
