Hi,
Can I write a report in V14 and save it in Crystal V11 format?

Thanks
 
Each of the versions (9, 10, XI, 2008, 2011) saves in a version specific format but any version from 9 can open the later version and run the reports. Version 8.5, 8.0 and earlier annot open those later versions. All versions can open older version reports.

That's as long as you don't use any version specific features not available in the version you are using the view reports.

Version 9 began using Unicode, which earlier versions could not handle.

As crystalkiwibruce says, it will open but you might find some of the commands fail. These will be identified when you try to run it in the old version.
