Hi,

I have upgraded Eclipse to Indigo (3.7.2). Used eclipse-reporting-indigo-SR2-win32-x86_64. Every time I modify the rptDesign file it prompts with a message - "The report was created with earlier...." Please see the attachment for the complete text. I don't want to upgrade, for business reasons want to continue with the previous version of rptdesign file. How do I do it?

Thank you.

RJ

You could download the standalone BIRT RCP designer corresponding to the version that the reports were written in and then maintain them in that, outside of eclipse itself?

BIRT does not have this feature. If you are not using any specific
features of the newer version you could try to replace the version lines
in the xml with the older version.
