| · | If MM 5.0 attempts to open an MM 2.0 database, the database will be automatically converted to the MM 5.0 structure. MM 5.0 databases are interchangeable with MM 4.0 and MM 3.0 databases, but when opening with MM 3.0 or MM 4.0, the features that come with MM 5.0 will of course not be available.
|
| · | MM 2.0 versions will not be able to open an MM 5.0 database. The work around for MM 2.0 users is to install the Free MM 5.0 Demo and use the Demo to view the data, create reports, and create needed export files. The ACTIVE Network Demo for MM 5.0 can be downloaded from the HY-TEK web site at: "downloads.html
