    Captivate has never been backwards compatible. You will not be able to open

    CP9 files in CP7, not even when they are upgraded from that version.

    Technically, it's the other way 'round.

    Captivate BACKWARD COMPATIBLE because later versions of Captivate can open projects created in earlier versions.

    However, Captivate has never been FORWARD COMPATIBLE because earlier versions (like Cp7) cannot open projects created in later versions (like Cp8 or Cp9).

    Backward compatibility is an often misunderstood term: Backward compatibility - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
