Open native Solidworks2022 files in Creo9

Cannot open native: SW2022*.sldprt, *.sldasm files in Creo9 - keeps showing error:

'M059183C001.SLDPRT' cannot be opened because it was previously opened using newer release of Creo.

'M047886C001.SLDASM' cannot be opened because it was previously opened using newer release of Creo.

 

We were able to do this in the past with no issues

 

We are using: Windchill 12.0.2.7, SW2022, Creo9, WWGM13.02.1

 

any ideas on what might have caused these files to not open now in Creo9?

seems to be a  Windchill issue? 

 

thanks

Rich

I was able to open a previous version with no issues:

something changed when new version SW file was "checked-in" ?

My first guess would be the use of a newer version of WGM than your Windchill version. I know it is not supposed to be an issue but something to test.

    we have been using WGM13, Windchill12, Creo9 and SW2022 for almost a year now

    never had issues opening native SW22 files until now.
