Hi Everyone,

I have the Professional Partner Disc and I have been handed a copy of an old MYOB file to work on.

The client is unsure of what version of MYOB she has but I can see the file type is "Video CD Movie".

How do I access the file without upgrading it to say v19 as I have to be able to give the file back after the work is done?

What do I need to download from the disc?

Thanks in advance.

Try using the Company File Manager from your partner cd

Hi

The type of fyle is determined by what the file extension has been registered as on your computer.  A .dat extension is for MYOB files from around V14 and prior as well as movies and different database file extensions.  There is, but perhaps only for files of .myo extension, a utility on the PPCD that will tell you the version of the file.
