If you have the code why not just recompile the app in 6 and create a netsetup EXE for them to install? If that is not a viable option, 5 and 6 co-exist without any gotchas that I know of as long as you do not mix the 2 versions while you develop. You also have to dumb-down < g > your knowledge of commands and functions so you do not use a V6 feature that is not in V5.
