version 9 tables -can they be used with version 8 code w/out problems?

[Veejc]

I have an off the shelf vendor application that uses fox version 9.

In house, we have some foxpro code (version 6,8) that manipulates some of these dbfs that the vendor app creates and maintains.

I am wondering if there is something I need to do with the tables or should the program and new v9 tables work fine together regardless of the version of the tables?

Shouldn't be a problem as long as the VFP 9 tables don't use field types that were introduced after VFp 6.

...and, I believe, as long as the VFP9 tables don't use auto-increment.
