Opening an older version of ArchiCAD

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have recently recovered a hard drive with some older projects on (version7) and would like to be able to open.
Is there any way to go back that far?

While you can download a version 7 converter and open directly (other than on a current Mac)... the version 10 converter can open version 7 files, and convert them to an integrated file that you can then open in AC 23 or other recent versions. (A version 7 project will contain separate project and plot maker files.)
