Visit, non-commercial source:- http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/cad-tools/cad-tools-aa/dwg/444-%E2%80%8Berror-cannot-open-file-open-cad-drawing-dwg-format

I would start with the BAK file for that drawing. If the BAK is not corrupt and you save often it should not take you long to redo the work in the drawing.

I have had success opening or recovering a drawing in a higher version of AutoCAD. If you have 2008 install it and try to recover it there.

There is a paid software DWG Viewer Tool

In case of anything helps you, you may try it- http://www.dwg.viewertool.com/

You may want to try AutoDesk TrueView which is a freeware.
