How can I open a 2009 dwg. in Autocad 2002
Rick,
You can ask the person giving you the 2009 DWG to save the DWG back in 2002 DWG format so you can read them but understand that not all features will be in the 2002 DWG format.
Why not download the free Autodesk DWG TrueView which will view all Autodesk DWG formats since 1983 and can also save and convert DWG files back to R14 DWG.
