 : : Hi Keith,
 : You should be able to just open your old portfolios with Fund Manager 7.0.: It shouldn't give you any warnings or errors when opening them.  If you try
 : to "save" a portfolio with Fund Manager 7.0 that was created with an earlier
 : version, then it will give you a warning, letting you know you are about
 : to convert the portfolio file to a new format, and that you won't be able to
 : open it in older versions anymore.
 : Has any of your data been moved around or anything?  Portfolios store the: locations of their investments in a relative manner to the portfolio file
 : itself.  What exactly does the message you get say?
 : Thanks,: Mark

 Hi Mark, I think the problem was that there no investments within the portfolio's that I had saved.
 I have now found a backup CD with my investments on it and Ive dropped them into the my data folder in FM. They are updating ok if a little out of date but when I come to exit or save, I get a message saying that access is denied and the files have 'read only attributes' Can you shed any light on this?
 Thanks
 Keith
