Hi all,

I have been having this problem since I installed Photoshop CS. I cannot get .psd files with text layers saved in PS 7 to open in PS CS. I get the error message: "Could not complete your request because the layer is not a valid text layer". For that reason, I am keeping both the versions in my computer. Obviously, I wanna get rid of PS 7 but if I do so, I won’t be able to open the files in CS. How should I do?

Thanks
Ben

Googling "Could not complete your request because the layer is not a valid text layer" didn’t help?
