Stairs and railings

[btobias]

I downloaded the stair and railing sample files from this website for use in my project.  I'm using Revit 2016.  When I try to open the files, it says they were saved in a later version and cannot be opened.  Any idea where or how I can get the 2016 version of these files to download?

Thanks.

Where did you download them from?

I downloaded them from this website.  I googled "handrails for Revit 2016", and it brought me here showing me the sample files for stairs and handrails.

Can you provide a link?  "This website" is pretty nebulous...

The link is below.  Sorry, for whatever reason, it won't allow me to copy it as a hyperlink.

Try this: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/search-result/caas/vhelp/help-dev-autodesk-com/v/Revit/enu/2013/Help/...

ADSK rarely changes their sample files; probably the same as the newer version you grabbed earlier.  Upon opening, they'll update to your version.

Excellent, thank you so much!  That worked perfectly.

Actually the older one "looks" the same, but there are a few subtle differences in the files.  The 2016 page somehow got updated with a link to the 2017 downloads when it should not have. The 2016 version of the stairs can be found here.
