fully compatible with data entered using the older version of the software.
All specification envelopes, sieve nests and compaction test specifications
created using the older programs remain available after the upgrade.

Swell/Consolidation, SHEAR, and QC-Concrete programs have importers that can read

read datafiles created with the DOS versions of the same programs.

with all files created with it's predecessor, LD4, as well as the DOS
LOGDRAFT III program, including project files and report and data entry
forms.
