Hello malta.

I recently installed PCStitch 11 where I currently work.
But I deleted the other pcstitch where I had done some work, others still unfinished.
When I was going to finish one of those old graphics I noticed that the current pcstitch doesn't recognize those old program files as well as open them.
Someone can help me since I have a really big job almost done, and I didn't want to waste the hundreds of hours already lost back from him.

Help please...

What version of PCStitch were you using?

As far as I know, PCStitch is backwards compatible. I know it can read at least as far back as PCStitch 7.

The files must be .pat files and NOT the form once used by PatternMaker.

You might be able to use the backup form (.bpt, I think) and they will open. Again, it should be backwards compatible.
