I know we are behind the times, seeing as 2012 will most likey be shortly relaeased. We save the majority of our drawings in AutoCAD 2000 format in order to pass on to our clients. AutoCAD 2010 created a lot of proxy information.Multi-leaders special dimensioning... Which has been a bit of a problem till I learned how to use -EXPORTTOAUTOCAD. We then discovered some stray MTEXT entities that only show up if you actually open in AutoCAD 2000 or 2002. I had to re-install Volo-View Express just to verify. I think it has something to do with MTEXT dynamic columns. If I open and save the same drawing thru 2007 they disappear. I had to write a routine to remove the extra characters being produced by 2010. We are in the process of upgrading to AutoCAD 2010 from AutoCAD 2007.
