Oddly - I can't open previous formats. I have logic 5 files that don't open in Logic 8... Do tell?

Per the L8 manual:

You can open L5, 6, and LP7 songs in Logic Pro 8. When loading a song created in a pre-version 8 Logic variant, the format will be converted to the version 8 format. A Save As dialog will open, allowing you to save the project with a new name. The original version song will be retained.

Important: Projects saved in Logic Pro 8 are not backward-compatible with older Logic Pro versions.
