Hi,
Jacque's previous message regarding incompatible stack formats worries
me. It's probably no big deal, but, better safe than sorry.
If I have been running my stacks without problem on version 2.6.1, in
Macintosh OS X, and I now upgrade to 2.7, what kind of problems, if any,
will I have if I need to use the Mac OS X Rev version 2.6.1 again, for
some reason?
Stacks saved in version 2.7 will no longer open in version 2.6.1 or
earlier. You will get an error that the stack is corrupted. They will
still open fine in 2.7.
There is a property you can set before saving in 2.7 that will make the
stack compatible with 2.6. However, the information has been removed
from the What's New text file and it isn't in the dictionary. I'm not
sure why. Possibly it is because any 2.7 features you've used in a stack
will be lost if saved in 2.6 format and they don't want people to risk
that loss.
AFAIK, 2.7 isn't ready for Mac OS 9.2. I guess 2.6.1 might be the end
> of the line for that platform.
The download page on the web site says that an OS 9 version is to be
available soon, so it doesn't look like they are planning to discontinue it.
