You can only use it for 2009 & 2010 & not 2008.
Hope this helps. If so please mark solved, if not please ask more questions. Thanks!

The solution
You can open a file from the client in 2008, but you will not be able to send any changes back to them. The Accountant's Copy only has 1 year of backwards compatibility (you could use Premier Accountant 2009 for their 2008 file).
You could log into their file remotely and help them. With QB Premier Accountant 2010 you get 12 months of WebEx Free. Go to Accountant>Remote Access to get started. Then, if you log into their file, you're using their QB 2008 and working in the live data file.
PLEASE mark this answer as solved (click the button under the answer in the lower, right corner) or post additional questions.
