Have WP5.0.  Was sent a file `presumably' created with 5.1.

I can `look' at the file with 5.0 without a problem but when
I try to read the file with 5.0 to edit it I get "incompatible
format".  Is there anything I can do about this, short of the
upgrade to 5.1?

Please reply by email if possible.

Thanks
Don Taylor
