Hello, AutoCAD users,

I have a file which has become large  --10.6 MB, yet when I rename it  remove most of it, purge, it stays big @ 10.0 MB.  A similar .dwg is ~~~900k  I have renamed it again, erased and purged, so that there is only ONE line on the drawing, and it still shows 10.0 MB.  The original .DWG works OK, a bit slow, but with purges which maybe take a minute or two.

What now?????    /s/    Bob

Ahoy ,John,

Sorry about the 'double post'.  I don't come on often, and made an error.

Than you.  I believe Thai did copy a few text things from 'outside'.  That's as good an explanation as there could be.

I've done all the other thing called for, and still have a 10mB file.

I'll investigate further, and see if I can clean it up by trying to remove any 'outside' text.

I'll reply after.

Thanks    /s/     Bob
