2001i - version 15 compatibility

I have mathcad 2001i which I am finally forced to upgrade because it won't work on my 64-bit windows 7 computer.

Will mathcad version 15 open 2001i files (.mcd)? If so, will they be usable with minor editing or will there be a lot of work required to get them working right?

(I read that version 15 will not save in 2001i format so it makes me think that maybe it won't open 2001i files either.)

I have just opened the file with no error messages.

I have attached a few images of the graphs and results tables so you can check if the answers came out the same.

I believe it will open the file but only save down to version 14. I think you would need version 11 to save down to 2001i, but I'm not entirely sure. You could post an example and I'll try opening.

Richard to name one collab has muliple versions - you might want to wait for his reply.

Good idea. I am attaching one of my mathcad 2001i files. If someone with version 15 can open it, it will answer my question.
