Hi Manie

As with all FC versions, the new version will read and run a flowchart from the previous version(s).
It may need minor tweaks to compile, but generally it should work out the box.

Once a V4 flowchart for example has been opened and resaved, compiled etc in V6 in wont open in V4 again so keep a backup copy if you want to use it in the older version again.

Flowcharts created in any version will not open in the previous version(s). This is normally true for most software.

Hope this explains everything
