Hi,

Can cubes, dimensions, rules, TI etc. developed in PA be copied straightly and run in 10.2 w/o any modification?

I believe running 10.2 objects in PA is OK. Not sure the otherwise.

Thanks.

Kenneth

I think as long as you have not used any of the new features of PA then the answer would be yes. Have you tried? I would do that before I would take anyone's word for it.

Truth is we haven't tested it yet. We just want to gather intel from other then plan based on the knowledge.

Thanks!

Answer is no unless it is the latest version of 10.2.2 FP7 plus fix packs.

There was a recent IF to 10.2.2 FP7 which correlated to a IF of PA 2.0.2 or 2.0.3 which introduced a change to format of cube files. If you try and load a .cub file saved in a version since this update in an older version you will get a "file format too new" error and the cubes won't load.

Thanks for the information. I'll have to check the version of PA and note this issue.
