Hi Everyone,

I have a user who created a word document a while ago and inserted a
AutoCAD
2002 drawing as an object. We have upgraded to AutoCAD 2006 LT and since
the
upgrade he cannot open the object from word. It comes up with this error
message "This object was created in AutoCAD. This application is not
available to open this object. Make sure application is properly installed
and that it has not been deleted, moved, or renamed." and he does not have
the original dwg file. Any help would be appreciated.


Cheers,
Liam
