Hello.
I am having an issue with what seems to be the compatibility between different versions of STAAD.
I was given a file to check that was created in STAAD.Pro V8i. I have CONNECT Ed. on my computer and, as expected, had no problem opening the file. During my checking made a few changes to the geometry and saved the file (using my CONNECT edition version of STAAD). I then emailed the file back to my college who informed me that he was unable to open the file. I went back to original file and checked to make sure I could open it, which i could, and then uploaded the file onto a shared network (thinking maybe somehow email was causing an issue). Still, he cannot open the file. STAAD will start to open and read the file before stalling and/or freezing until they close the program. After speaking with other colleges, some have found this issue before when trying to open certain files with V8i that were created or saved with the CONNECT edition.
Are there any documented issues similar to what I'm describing above? I've attached the file below for reference.
Thanks,
