Anne, When you get the message to convert you need to say yes as the 7.5 file was created with an earlier version of it so you need to have it convert it to it’s 7.5 version

If I open 7.5 - go to open family file - the file of all my old files opens - I select a file - press open and I get the message to convert. If I say no I get the message I have an older format.
