Hi,

In the mid 1990's I used the Progress Database which had a great feature
where the it was possible to set the software version in the
configuration file. For example, if you had a built a database and
application using version 3 and then upgraded the version 7, it was
possible to set the database configuration to version 3 and then
continue to use the same database and applications without having to
dump the database tables and data then import them into a version 7
database or update applications.
Does this feature exist in ProgreSQL, can a v8 access a database created
using v7?

Russell
