Ahem...
I can't speak for others, but I have made sure (for decades) that
Adager refuses to deal with IMAGE databases whose RootFile versions
are beyond Adager's understanding. Here is an example, using a very
old Adager version (from January, 1998) on a database with new IMAGE
limits:

Run with Parm=8 to build a stream file. Run with Parm=1 for expert mode.
Use "?" for context-sensitive HELP. Press <RETURN> for [DEFAULT VALUES].
Anywhere in the Adager dialogue, you may enter an MPE command preceded by ":"
(such as ":pscreen", to capture part of your screen to a printer or a file).

Yes, I know: I will have to improve the elegance of the message,
"Non-supported root level: C 5 (%000005)".
Looking forward to lots of computer programming,
