Downgrade or choose version of FFS?

I guess it could be difficult to store your data with an older FFS version.

 

What type of data are you referring to: vector/raster, 'normal' attributes/lists?

Well, mostly "normal" vectors - however some of them might also be quite complex. I guess there are some improvements on the FFS-format from for instance 2010 to 2013 that deals with complex geometry. Regarding attributes I can usually give them an ID and add attributes at the end.

There is no provision in the code to write out  older FFS versions. I have sometimes wished for this myself (for cross-version testing), but the code to write the older versions simply isn't there anymore. 

 

 

The best thing to do is to find another, non-Safe format. The choice of format would depend largely on the actual content of your data. (I tend to go for MIF, because I can view it in a text editor, but it isn't so good for some complex data.)
