    help?

    is it possible to update many files at once without having to open them? I
    have a server full of files that are too old for my acad now to show a
    preview unless I open each one & save it to 2000. I have a few cad stations
    on 2004 & a few on 2000i & a few on LT

    TIA

    If you have 2004 you should be entitled to download the "Batch Drawing
    Converter" from the AutoDesk web site. That will allow you to select a batch
    of drawings and convert them.

    if that batch converter program does not work for you
    you can download AutoScript generator and an simple "qsave" "exit" command
    can do what you need.

    Batch Drawing Converter does not add preview thumbnails. We use MultiBatch to do things like this.
