I created a RSLogix5000 Vx for each version I have as a shortcut in the SendTo folder. Now I right click on the .ACD and SentTo the correct version. Seems to be a lot happier and faster doing that.
My apologies if I am missing something. This would appear to be unnecessary. If I open a v28 file, the system automatically inspects the file header and sees that it needs v28 and opens that version (assuming I have it installed). If I then open a v30 file it automatically switches to v30. I never have to tell it to open a file with any version.
If I don't have the necessary version, it instead opens the last version I was using and gives me a prompt about the version and asking me to change it.
Now, where shortcuts like you mentioned would be useful (to me) is when I just want to open a specific version without opening a file.
Again, I apologize if I am overlooking a reason for this.
