How do you update a company file?

My work has used QuickBooks in the past and I have a .QBW file that I want to open.
We had misplaced the software to open this document so I sourced a copy of QuickBooks Premier 2011-2012 to try and view this file.
I downloaded this software and went through the following steps:
Open an existing Company File > Open a company file (.QBW) > Selected my file (in .QBW format) > Attempted login
When I tried to login an error came up "This company file needs to be updated. Contact your QuickBooks Administrator".
Does anyone know how to update this file?

Hello
Depending on the age of the data file if it is a version 7 or version 8.
You may need to upgrade through.
2002
2007/08
The above two had major changes to data base structure and must be upgraded.
Then the 2011/12
