Saving a Template or Form to an Earlier Version

You can save your report templates, label templates, or forms so that they are backwards compatible with earlier PC-DMIS versions that also support template reporting.

To do this:

  1. Open the desired report or label template inside its respective editing environment (the Report Template editor, the Label Template editor, or the Form Editor).

  2. Select the File | Save As menu item to open the Save As dialog box.

  3. Near the bottom of the dialog box, use the list under the Save as type list to specify the version. The earliest version you can save these items back to is version 4.2 MR2. Select the desired version and click Save.

If you use the File | Save menu item, PC-DMIS automatically saves the item to your current running version of PC-DMIS, even if it was saved to an earlier version previously.
