Richard,I use 7.2 and have no problem importing .ai files, as well as .eps into 
both Structured and Unstructured FM7.2 files.
But, back to the original question, if Arlyn needs to edit the Illustrator CS6 
files, and doesn't have the CS6 version, yes, the originator would have to save 
then source in a version that she has.
