What kinds of file sizes are you seeing? Why are your files so large? Are there any .DGN files (ex. - linetypes) used in your drawings? Are you inserting images? Are you using xrefs? What are your hardware specs? Are you running an anti-virus program? If so, which one? Have you run the Overkill, -Purge (Regapps), -Purge (All) and Audit commands on the files? Please answer ALL of the above questions. No answers = no help. We need complete information in order to diagnose the cause of the problem. Thank you. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

And why would that make any difference? Please explain the reasoning behind that statement. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |
