    I'm using maple 10, but my school all use maple 7, and therefore all the work I have done at home cannot be opened at school. Is the only solution to replace maple 10 with 7?

    Don't know much about Maple, but is there a "save as" command where you could save as an older version of Maple?

    I bet Arla's right -- alot of programs try to maintain at least some backwards compatibility.

    There are only two save options: maple wordsheet (.mw) and maple classic worksheet (.mws). It's hard to get one maple 7 at the store. I don't know why my school is so out of date.
    Anyway, I'll wait till school starts and try with the .mws and then open it at school.
