But besides that is there anyway to open a CS5.5 project in 5.0 .

it would be a great help.

Huh? That's a pretty cryptic thread title.

But to answer your concern directly, I'm surprised that you didn't know that you can back-save AE 10.5:

Look for the section, "Save and back up projects in After Effects CS5.5"

Now, none of the new features in 10.5 will show up, but I'll guess you weren't expecting miracles.

Thats cool

I havent used CS5.5 yet, but the place I am working at has it installed.
I brought the files home to try some expressions (see expressions thread) but to my dismay and consternation am unable to open the project.

Still .. i can save a CS5 copy tomorrow and have expressions fun all weekend !

Dave answered your down-save question.

As for what's new, see After Effects CS5.5: What’s new and changed [link].

The Warp Stabilizer,improved DoF, and better timecode support are my favorite new features.
