8 To update your project with the new file information, select the file in the Project Navigator tree, right-click,
and click Re-Path File.
WARNING When you re-path a project that was saved in a version of Architectural Desktop prior to 2007, the
drawings are saved in the Architectural Desktop 2007 file format. You will no longer be able to open these
drawings in a version of Architectural Desktop prior to 2007. Synchronizing a project with the project standards
will also save the project drawings in the Architectural Desktop 2007 file format. AutoCAD Architecture 2008
uses the Architectural Desktop 2007 file format so drawings are interchangeable between these releases. For
more information, see
“ Updating (Re-path) the Project ” on page 292 .

For more information on updating files, see “ Updating (Re-path) the Project ” on page 292.
