Hello everybody,
we are currently using different Vensim versions in our company like 6.3E, 6.4 and 7.3.5. A project partner is now thinking to get Vensim 8.1.2 to use and edit the models that we develop together.
Can you tell me if there are any compatibility issues to expect?

Re: Compatibility of Vensim DSS versions
The main difference is the new results file format (VDFX). Older versions will not read VDFX files, but you can export to CSV and import into the older versions if you need to.

Re: Compatibility of Vensim DSS versions
There should not be any backward compatibility issues, i.e. there's nothing in 6 or 7 that 8 can't read.
