Chief 6 Backward Compatibility

[CraigMeyer]

Don,
I have been pulling in Chief 97 files every day that were started and not finished when 6.0 arrived and with the new features of 6.0 I couldn't resist. I have had NO problem at all.

The only thing that I did notice and I havent had time to check it out further was I tried to do an "edit Area" copy>paste to a new plan in 6.0 from a 97 plan and it changed all the wall attributes on me.

It wasn't a project...just playing around...but that too is a wonderful feature.
Enjoy the new program...IT's GREAT !

Craig


Forgot one very important thing.....Do not just drag all your 97 folders into 6.0. Open the 97 files in 6.0 and save as...a new plan in 6.0. That way you always thave the 97 files safe as a backup and also you wmy want to work them over in 97 for some reason.
