I have Captive 6 at home and at work we are using 5.5.with no plans to upgrade.  How do I create or edit in Captivate 6 and still save files so my coleagues can contribute using the software we are given at work?

Have you tried saving it as a Captivate Template file, i created a file in 7 and was able to open it up in 6 by saving it as cptl extension you may lose some of the features not supported in the earlier version but it may be worth a try

Only between 6 and 7 this is possible, not with previous versions. And even between 6 and 7 you can have weird things happening. It has nothing to do with being a normal file or a template, I don't know why you tell that?

OP was talking about 5.5 and 6, and there this is NOT possible at all.

Good to know i have never tried that with earlier versions as my home and work copy are usually the same version

Sorry, there is no way. You can open a 5.5 file in 6, but not the reverse.
