We have not made any protocol changes in awhile so these have gotten out of sync. We will look at this in the coming days. As to the conversion message, once the upgrade process to VS 2013 is performed, older clients would no longer be able to open the solution file. Since we need to keep the solution files available to all users, we will probably not be able to change this, but I will discuss it with management nonetheless to be sure they are aware of your concerns. Maybe we can come up with a few different installer versions, but we'll see how goes. Tim

Ask Apple CEO Tim Cook . . how quickly Apple customers upgrade . . and why Microsoft is being dragged down by support for legacy software . . . . Nadella is changing that. Thank you. mano San Jose, CA
