The simple answer is, no.  The map will have to be built in the lower version to execute properly.  Getting the source files to even load in the older designer can sometimes be a bit of pain as well, and it helps to have all the intermediate versions as well.

Process:

1 Source flies from WTX 8.3, exported to plain text.
2 Plain text files imported to WTX 8.2, opened, saved.
3 Source flies from WTX 8.2, exported to plain text.
4 Plain text files imported to WTX 8.1, opened, saved.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Obviously, the more versions you have to go back, the less likely it is to work.  It is also worth stating that any newer features used, will not work in the older version, such as the XMLLIB functions for example.

Thank you.
