First I want to thank all of you for your response, thanks Jacques and Pauline ! I could save my workspace by -changing the header from 550 to 450 and by -deleting the line 'distance type cartesian'.

First there is no exhaustive lists of the variations between versions that make them backwards incompatible. Even the version written in the wor is not a sure way to detect them. I have seen incompatible changes between MI versions while the wor version number was not changed. The "Fond [type] by searching to [unit]" was probably "Found [type] while looking for [unit]' and came with a line number such as "xyz.wor:45". Open the wor and find that line. Identify the call and we will see how to correct the statement. As the wor's are not compiled, you will be able to find and correct one error at the time. Therefore patience is required. I can help you getting starting, if you wish.

I did, what everybody sad. I change version 4.5 with 5.5. When I try to open the workspace I get the message "Fond [type] by searching to [unit]". The window I get, is not the same as it was. Is there a chance to get the Workspace as it was, if I don't know exactly witch new features from 5.5 I get in the workspace. Does anybody know, if there is a list or something like this with the new features from 5.5 an the differences or the text in the workspace for these features?

The second line should say "!Version 5.5" Change that to say version 4.5 and all your problems should disappear!

We have got many user of MI in our office. To test MI 5.5 we installed once the new version. With MI 5.5 we opened older Workspaces, witch we saved with MI 4.5. Now, if we make changes with MI 5.5 to the workspaces we did with MI 4.5, we can't open the new Workspaces with MI 4.5 anymore. Can anyone tell me, if there is a solution for this problem.
