Is there a way to save a report that can be opened by a previous version?

Hi, i have developed some reports in a newer version (21), but i have a client that has an application that uses an old version (i think it could be Borland), there's no way to upgrade his application because the programmer died from covid (rest in peace). So the question: is there any way to make my report compatible with an old version of rb?

  • Hi Anthony,

    Unfortunately no. The new report(s) or report templates will contain references to all the new properties and features added since the older version and will display an error for each one when loading.

    While it's possible (but not likely) these reports could work if all the errors are "ignored", then reports resaved, we cannot provide support for this process.
