I have a scene I've done in maya4.0 and I've accidentally opened and saved it in maya4.5

I now want to work in 4.0 to make some changes but the piece of shit wont open it. Is there no way to fix this at all or am I stuck working with 4.5

IF THIS IS THE CASE THEN THIS SOFTWARE IS A PIECE OF SHIT!

sorry, very very hacked off - eleventh hour and dont need this bollox from a stupid piece of software.

save out of maya 4.5 as a .ma, open it in word pad delete the fileinfo stuff, change maya 4.5 required to maya 4.0 required, save your changes and then open in maya 4.0
