SUMMARY:
Roundtable -- Version 9 Progress does NOT allow you to update the schema of a Version 8 database. This means that you cannot use a V8 database (even running a server) as a workspace database in a V9 workspace.
EXPLANATION:
This also makes installing V9 Roundtable against a V8 repository a
little more difficult. You must run the first half of the V9
_update.w (the schema update) using V8 Progress. This is because there are schema changes required by V9 Roundtable that you must apply
to your V8 repository. You then quit the install, restart it using
V9 Progress, skip past the schema update (that you already completed)
and perform the compile of Roundtable.
If you wish to mix and match V8 and V9 workspaces in a single
repository, you will have to leave your repository as V8 so that your
V8 clients can connect to it.
V9 Progress has no known difficulty writing to a V8 database.
