This message has been posted on the Augi forum, (see below) unfortunately this is a locked forum and I cannot not post. Has anyone else come accross this problem? Does anyone have a reccomendation for what to do if we have converted to 9.1 and are currently working with worksets on such a project. Losing 4 months of work would quite possibly suck a lot.

Possible corruption issue in 9.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Workset-enabled projects created prior to Revit 9, upgraded to Revit 9, and then upgraded to 9.1 may experience corruption. The issue will be addressed in a new build of 9.1 that will come out soon. In the meantime, wait to upgrade projects that fall under this category until the new build arrives.

I can't believe that there are no comment on this important topic. Does no-one use worksets and 9.1 out there and are concerned about losing their projects?

Sorry, we only recieved our 9.1 disks last week and are still using 8.1. So far I am the only one in my office using the program so the bosses aren't in too much of a hurry to upgrade.

We are using 9, and haven't received 9.1, yet. I guess I shouldn't be in a hurry to upgrade.

We still haven't even received 9.1. But from the looks of this post and others out there, it'll be better for us to just wait for the next send out of 9.1 anyway.

We worked started in 9.0 with worksets and upgraded to 9.1 - We have had no problems so far.
just a suggestion - upgrade your central file first then do a save as to your personal file. Trying to upgrade your personal file and then saving to central casued problems when we upgraded from 8.0 to 8.1

I had the same problem with our workset. Revit 9 and 9.1 cannot share worksets it must be upgraded. So make sure everybody is using Revit 9.1 that is working on that workset. You must first detach the central file in 9 and then upgrade the workset in revit 9.1 and then save a new central file and create new worksets for each person. Not hard to do and there is no fallout from doing this.

Until every local file is forced to turn into its own central file or else you can't save and that is what we experienced with both upgrades.

If you experience the problem i mentioned you fix it by saving a local as the central file thereby upgrading the file to 9.1. You can not upgrade the existing central file directly and in fact have to delete it.

The problem that we found with 9.1 was that you could not save over a network. Our office lost 3 jobs. It has been a bit slack of Autodesk not to send out a e-mail or letter. Something to let us know there may be a problem. Don't get me wrong, I love using Revit.

thanks for all the replies. We have not had any problems ourselves and I was just worried that we may lose some projects. It seems that the problem is not that widesppread. We always have the local file as a backup I guess.

I allways give this advice to my clients as i was told this from a reliable source.
always finish a project in the version of revit that you started it in.
i know some projects may last a few years, but migrating a project from one release to another can cause different problems.
