I have a test server which I updated to 7.2 our production server is 7.1.9

Will a project made in the 7.2 server then imported into the 7.1.9 server run?

I have not tried it just wondering if I can expect problems.

Jim

Yes a project made in 7.2 will not run in 7.1.9. The software is backwards compatible meaning you can take an older version project and restore it on a new version. However, the software is not forwards compatible.
