GOAL:

Can a binary dump file from one version of Progress be used in another version of Progress without resulting in any problems?

GOAL:

Is binary dump file portable across different Progress versions?

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 8.2x
Progress 8.3x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x

FIX:

Yes, Progress provides backwards-compatibility for binary dump files. For example, a Progress 9.1E binary dump file can be loaded into a OpenEdge 10.x database.

If the binary dump files are greater than 2GB, then ensure that the version of Progress being used to load them provide large files support.
