Backward Compatibility

Our university is currently using Multisim 8, I have recently installed the evalution version of Multisim 12 and was wondering if it is possible to open the .ms8 files using this later version as I desperately need them to complete a report. Whilst Windows recognises to open the files using multisim all I get at the moment is a message stating that the file either doesn't exist or is of the wrong format. It would also be of great benifit to know whether or not I can open .gra files taken from a Bode plotter in MS8 and open these within 12.

 

Thanks in advance

Hello,

 

The files should open innately in MS12 without issue. Would you mind attaching the file here to verify there is nothing wrong with the file?

Don't save your files in v12 unless you plan to buy it! Once you save it as a v12, you're locked in- you can't go back.  You can't save in a previous version such as you can with Autocad. That applies to all versions, not just student. Just sayin...
