Greetings Larry, Are you familiar with the convert-ly command? From the terminal, you should be able to type convert-ly -e FILENAME, substituting the last portion with the name of your file. Then your code should be updated to the version which you are currently using. I hope this helps.

Thanks, James, David, and Hwaen. Convert-ly doesn't handle version 1.4 very well, not surprising. The current project I'm working on is a very short piece, so I may just start over with this one. Long-term, however, it would be nice to find somewhere that a user can grab an old version, install
