Had have to able to run R14 and LT2007 so I am familiar with the SDI setting.
However, when I run an R14 dwg now (having made the appropriate configuration) I now experience an error.

Hi Simon,

I can try, but you will need to describe your "error".

Are you using 2007 to open an R14 drawing, or are you using R14 to open an R14 drawing?

(BTW - Hurricane v6.5.10 was the last version of Hurricane to support AutoCAD R14) It can be downloaded from here.

Hi Bill:

I am opening R14 dwg's with Hurricane set to R14 function, path etc. .
No matter what script I run, Hurricane will not finish opening my dwg.
Here is the pre-batch part of the script:


; ***************************************************************
; HURRICANE 6.5.10 - SCRIPT CREATED 23/02/2007 : 12:44:05 PM
; ***************************************************************
; << START OF PRE-BATCH COMMANDS >>
_SDI 1
; << END OF PRE-BATCH COMMANDS >>

the opening sequence results in the error:

Command: _SDI Unknown command "SDI". Press F1 for help.

There is something in my setup that mimicks or is a remnant of the R2007 setup which requires that I set up the SDI variable.
I have to use this from time to time when I have to deal with 2000 series Acad dwgs.

I'm looking forward to using my valuable Hurricane again.

Thanks

Simon

Hi Simon,

If you are using AutoCAD R14, the SDI system variable doesn't exist in that version of AutoCAD.

Your Hurricane setup needs to be adjusted...

You can do either of two things, (or both like the video below).

You can go to Tools->Options and toggle the R14 setting, and ensure the LT checkbox is selected,

and/or

Go to the SETTINGS Tab in Hurricane, and click the "AutoCAD R14" default button, your settings should be corrected.

Here is a quick video tutorial

Please let me know if this solves your problem.

Regards,
Bill
