I guess you don't ever need to open old Finale files, then. I certainly do, and the import into newer versions of Finale is FAR from perfect. I guess my point is we DO need to be able to open old versions of Finale, regardless of what we are normally running. I still haven't recovered from AppleWorks files breaking in 10.6.6. Pages opens the word processing docs (not transparently, though) and Numbers opens the spreadsheets, but for the myriad Paint files I have lying around, nothing will open them except AppleWorks, which is broken unless all I do is open and print.
