I am using Autocad LT 2004. I got the error listed below when trying to open a file. Has anyone seen this or have any ideas?

Hi,

service pack installed?
Every *.dwg? Did You try "_recover"?

thanks for the reply.
I have installed the service pack. It is only one particular file that I have the problem with. I don't know what you mean "_recover".

The file I am having a problem with was saved as a dwg file through adobe illustrator.

That may be your issue.

To recover, It should be FILE >> UTILITIES >> RECOVER and then browse to the drawing.

And if recovering does not work, you can create a new file and insert the rogue drawing. This typically fixes whatever is wrong with the entities database.
