Opening Autocad file with Intellicad

[Fazekas]

Brand new user and i am getting an error when i try to open a dwg that was created in Autocad 2004, any suggestions?

whats the error?

It is a Runtime Error, it states "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way". The application is Carlson2009_ICAD/icad.exe
If we explode everything in the autocad drawing, then we are able to open it.

Is the drawing a land desktop drawing with objects? I am guessing it could be these objects causing the problem and once they are exploded they are no longer objects and no longer cause a problem. If you to email us the drawing with the issue we can take a look. support@carlsonsw.com

I think that is it, it was created in Land Desktop with objects. We are going to try a couple of things to remove the objects when we get the drawings. These are drawings that a client is sending us, so we have to figure out a way to get them open in Carlson without having the client explode them before sending.
