Bobby, In the past, when there has been a change in the file structure it has not been possible for the file to be read by an older version. I share files with my brother-in-law and suggested to him not to update from V. 7.5.0.142. On the release of 7.5.0.154, I recommended that he updated. During the interval I did not update my files.

If I update to 7.5.0.154 will my sister be able to use 7.5.0.142 to open the file? I understand there may have been some changes made to table formats in a version between .142 and .154. If I save the Legacy7setup.exe file as Legacy7setup.142 and update to .154 can I go back to .142 by renaming Legacy7setup.142 to Legacy7setup.exe and reinstall .142 or will I need to restore a backup of .142 data?
