[BLDG-SIM] Finding Autocad Files?

[Renee J. Azerbegi]

Check you have the right version of AutoCAD. I'm not sure if eQuest can
import drawings that are 2004+ - does anyone know? I know 2002 and 2000
work.

Make sure that you have traced around the building with a polyline.

If you have checked both things and you are still getting this error I'm not
sure what might be wrong. You might try the user support with eQuest, one of
the DOE2 representatives.

Subject: [BLDG-SIM] Finding Autocad Files?

Dear All:

Here is another important question that I can't find an explanation for:

"When I open an existing project that I created using an existing
AutoCAD drawing, it always says that the drawing isn't found and do I
want to browse for a replacement.  It says this even when I have not
moved the original drawing and when I have already re-linked it by
browsing for a replacment.  Do you know what I can do to stop this from
happening?"

Can someone help with this matter?????

Thank you


Nader
