Software companies often change their file format on new releases. This means 3rd party programs won't read them unless updated. May be a minor change so if you have a 5.4 file you can compare it to a 5.5 file and you may only have to make minor change to the 5.5 file. Also some codes allow you to specify writing a previous version format when writing a file.

Hi maserey,

Maybe you could provide minimal example of not working .mphtxt file. This is precisely a standard that Comsol uses. We have written the reader using reverse engineering.
