DataStage is backwards-compatible, but not necessarily forwards-compatible. You can do an export in V8, then edit the .dsx file so that the header information shows the one required for V7 (I'm not at a DataStage installation, so can't give you the exact numbers); the import at V7 might show warning and/or errors but you should at least get something loaded and can check to make sure that all jobs compile and run correctly. Naturally any stages or functionality that exists in V8 and doesn't exist in V7 won't function.

It's not expensive (less than 30c per day) to obtain a premium membership, after which you will be able to read the entirety of premium members' posts.
