Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Can you save a P6 file to P3 ?

G’day,

Is there an option to save to P3 from P6 ? I haven’t got P6 yet but have heard you cannot save a P6 file as a P3 file ? A work around, I suppose, would be to save to P5 (from p6) and then from P5 to P3...

Cheers,

Kevin.

No worries Dieter, I’m booked on a P6 course middle of May so will take this onboard then.

Hi Kevin
Be aware that P6 has features not included in P3; they won’t be transferred.
Before setting-up P6 read the pdf in CD no.3 "From P3 to P6". There you’ll find some good advices.
Regards
Dieter
