Question

Copying slides from Captivate 9 to Captivate 7

Hi there,

I have a subscription for Captivate 9 at home but at work I can only work on Captivate 7.

I have a couple of home projects I'd like to work on at work.  I accept that 7 won't open a 9 file but I read somewhere that I can copy slides from the 9 projects to 7 projects.  I've tried that but nothing happens.  I can copy a 7 slide to a 9 project.

Is there a way I can copy slides from my Captivate 9 project to a Captivate 7 project?

Sorry but no.

Upgrading a Cp7 file to Cp9 is a one way trip.  Once you do, you will never be able to open that same file again in Cp7.

That sucks - but thanks for responding.

I'm afraid this has always been standard Captivate behaviour.  No version of Captivate is FORWARD compatible, but all are BACKWARD compatible for at least a few versions.
