Welcome to the RH community.

What you need to do is find the projects. .CPD file and delete it. Then you should be able to open the project in RH7. BTW make sure you have a backup copy of your RHX5 project as there is no going back once opened in RH7.

I am curious how you were trying to open the project as RH should only ever refuse to open a project created in a LATER version.
