How can you open 9.0 objects in 8.1? PLN and GSM is not downward compatible, isn't it?

Well, one can save a .pln in an earlier format,
I know they don`t work backwards.
but I had no idea it`s the same with .gsm files.

So, if I need the library objects in both 9.0 and 8.1 I have to do them in 8.1??

I think so, yes. Better do it in 7.0. Then you can use it in start edition too. 😉
