Fellow GISers,<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>I
have never been able to open any colleague&#8217;s mxd.&nbsp; I had accepted
this as the status quo until Janis Paulsen sent out a solution to her problem
with an attached mxd.&nbsp; I was curious why she sent an mxd instead of a pdf
or jpg.&nbsp; When I tried to open her mxd, I got the message saying &#8220;The
map document was saved using a newer version of ArcGIS&#8221;.&nbsp; &nbsp;Ok,
that&#8217;s simple enough &#8211; different versions equals a compatibility
issue.&nbsp; However, she was able to open the mxd I sent her.&nbsp;
Assumption: Lower versions can be opened with higher versions&#8230;
maybe.&nbsp; Hmmm, whenever I try to open a colleague&#8217;s mxd, I get the
message: &#8220;Could not open the specified document&#8221;.&nbsp; Why?&nbsp;
Janis thought that this may be a question for SHRUG-L and I thought, why
not.&nbsp; Let&#8217;s see what the collaborative powers of the great minds of
SHRUG GISers can come up with.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
