It's not really the whole story, though.  If you read my original post, I
mentioned that FMII _was_ able to "recover" the entire database into
another
file.  This implies (to me) that it does understand the format in which the
Pro database was saved, and can make a reasonable go of building it into a
file.  But it won't _show_ it -- even the recovered file, when opened,
returns
the same version number warning.  Frustrating.

It's really not a big deal.  Thought someone might have hacked out the
same problem.
