Supposedly it is not as dangerous to use unmatched versions of Developer Studio as it was to use non-matching versions of the Admin tool. Just using a different patch level will not cause any issues.
I know I have seen it on the list of people using the v8 Developer Studio against a 7.6 system Fred From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brittain, Mark Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2014 9:11 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Version compatibilty ** Hi All, This might be a candidate for the RUG dumbest question award but I will ask anyway. Just want to double check the safety of using different SP versions. In our development environment we have upgraded the AR Server and mid-tier from 7.6.04 SP3 to SP5. However it would be a month or so before upgrade production to SP5. I have development work to do and production work to do before the upgrade and only one workstation for use. I have been told it is safe to use the SP5 Developer Studio on the SP3 environment, but want to be sure.
