Will QuickBooks 2008 be able to open a QuickBooks 2006 database file without the QuickBooks 2006 database file having to be converted to a QuickBooks 2008 database file?

Will QuickBooks 2008 be able to open a QuickBooks 2006 database file (which is also opened by four other users using QuickBooks 2006) without the QuickBooks 2006 database file having to be converted to a QuickBooks 2008 database file?

I have one particular user who insists on using QuickBooks 2008 and we only have one QuickBooks 2008 license available.

If you absolutely must open the company file in 2008 from 2006 then you should either use a portable file or import a backup file just in case you need to go back to 2006.

The other thing to do is use 2006 on a server with terminal services and log in from any location and utilize it that way....
