How to save FM 9.0 files as FM 7.2

Hi,

Is there a way that I can save FM 9.0 files as FM 7.2. The "Save As" feature in FM 9.0 shows only FM 8.0 and I do not have that FM version.

Thanks,

    The only way to go to 7.0 is a save as MIF in FM9.

    C,

    Using the UI you would have to use MIF 7 as an intermediate file format. Using FrameScript or another API programming method you can control the version of the binary format.

    Your best bet would be to remove this requirement from your process, since you risk losing important information (primarily Unicode related text content).
