There are a lot of 5.0 objects that he would need downgrade or ignore during downgrading it to the 4.0 sp3.
It's not worth it unless you are looking for a specific feature that they implemented in 5.0.
Why are you using the 5.0 LS Retail instead of 4.0 sp3?

I have a simular Problem but i can't simply make a technical upgrade to 5.0.1
Apparently someone tried to open the DB with the wrong version of navision and it started to convert the DB. But our client doesn't want to upgrade so i need to undo the changes made during conversion.
is there any way to do so?
thanks a lot!
p.s. apparently everything but scrolling down to the last table in the Object Designer still works fine.
well but that would mean that our client might need to change that too some time. and the other 4.03 projects we support (which haven't been converted) might get further problems when we run them on this modified client.
I don't want to fight the symptoms. I really need to rollback that convertion if any possible... where does navision call these stx. files? aren't they somehow in a relation to hidden tables or something like that?
Is the DB on SQL or Native? If SQL, you can try to search the Object table for system table which is only in NAV 5 and not in 4 and delete it from there (e.g. Record Link).
As Kine said, if this has happened in SQL you can delete the system tables which should not exist in a Version 4 database, although you'd have to do it through Management Studio.
If the issue is with a C/Side database which I'm assuming it is, you will need to contact Microsoft and ask them to help you with the issue. You'll need a merged STX file to do what you require. I've had the issue before which is caused by a Version 5 client not informing the user it's performing an upgrade when you connect to an earlier version through a Database Server. There's a KB for the V5 client, but I can't find it .
Both the V4 and the V5 STX files don't contain enough information for you to open the database, you need a merged version, then you have to backup the database with this and restore it to a fresh V4.X database using the correct client. Quite a pain unfortunately!

The stx has the following text

Thanks for ur reply.Iam restoring LSRetail5.0 in NAV4.0 SP3. LS5.0 supports NAV SP3.
Thanks & Regards,
Kishore.
Obviously it doesn't as you can see.
Why are you using 4.0 sp3 exe?

May be it is supported, but cannot be "downgraded" in this backup&restore way. You need to export it as text and merge it into SP3 DB...

The main reason for this problem is the that you don't have the right Navision version.
Get the right version and install it from the scrutch.
Success.

Is it possible to take the backup without any data loss??
is it possible to resolve this problem???
