Can you save a drawing created in another CAD program using AutoCAD 2022?

I am looking for confirmation regarding the above topic.  I recently sent a drawing, created with nanoCAD, to someone using AutoCAD 2022.  They tried to save the drawing but claim AutoCAD 2022 refused to comply.  nanoCAD does read/write to the .DWG file format so I find the fact they could not save the drawing surprising.

I have never heard of any problems like that. Post the drawing or send it privately if it's confidential and I can take a look or someone else could if you can post it.

Maybe use saveas ? Part 2 maybe set the save version 2013 2018 etc. Did it Have proxy objects ?

 

The clones pride them selves on matching dwg so very strange, if they could open does not make sense that they could not save.

The dwg saved without problem. So the problem looks to be on the third party's end.

Thank you for the information, Steven-g.  It is just as I thought.
