How can one open/view a .erwin file if your company does not have an ERWIN licence?

Is it possible?

Requesting an alternatively formatted file is not an option.

do you have visio? this might be an option: help.lockergnome.com/office2/… –  scunliffe Aug 9 '12 at 13:01
the thread suggests using a Visio 2003 database template to open the file. I do have Visio 2003, but the database template is not there.. –  RawFocus Aug 9 '12 at 13:32

You could try ERwin's community edition software: http://erwin.com/products/data-modeler/community-edition

Just FYI - the community edition only allows up to 25 objects. And the read-only edition is $1,000 (that's not a typo). –  Mark Mar 5 '13 at 17:18
