Hi Chris, Holth, Daniel C. mentioned an option in the Flash 8 preferences: "Warn on save for Macromedia Flash MX 2004 compatibility"
Instead of yelling at the users everytime, yell at them once to enable this option. Then when you try to save an MX04 doc in Flash 8 it will prompt you. If they still save as Flash 8, then that's something to yell at them about.

I have users who some have Studio 8 installed and a couple with just MX 2004, and we don't have enough licenses to go around at the moment. I did see FLAver and I can guess it reads the header of the file to get the version info. Other than that I think we're stuck and I'll have to keep yelling at the ones who keep going to File>Save in Studio 8. That's another bugger that gets me too. You open a MX 2004 file in Studio 8 and when you go to save, it saves it as version 8. You'd think it would save it to it's original version; or pop up a message saying it's in a older format and to stick with the older or use the newer format. Anyways :) I appreciate everyone's thoughts.
