Default MX and Ver 4 problems - 07-13-2004 , 10:47 AM






I have upgraded to Dreamweaver MX but other collegues at work are still using
version 4.

Is there a way I can set Dreamweaver MX to make templates etc that can be also
used by ver 4?
Basically I am after a simular feature to Microsoft's Word - In that programme
I can select to save a file in a previous versions format.

I am awair that a load of great MX features would be unavailable but my
collegues need to be able to use templates etc without problems.

Thanks
Jono.

You can use Find and Replace to change MX template syntax to version 4
style. the template syntax for version 4 will work in MX and 2004.
see a tutorial at this site for converting syntax-
http://www.dreamweavermx-templates.com

If the templates are version 4 syntax, you could ~probably~ edit them in
2004 and they will stay version 4 syntax, as long as you don't use any mx
specific features like editable attributes. But may be safest to leave the
changing of templates to version 4 work stations.

Also- you should set up all the copies of Dw so they do NOT "share design
notes" The .mno files from 2004 will cause a total lockup of version 4!
