I don't use Maya, but I'd have thought it was backwards compatible to a degree? Can't you just open the file in Maya 7?

Otherwise you could try exporting it in several different formats and try importing them in version 7.

Cheers :D

if it's the same as getting files from 7 to 8 you need to:

open file in notepad
there should be four version numbers within the first few lines of text
change from 8 to 7
save file
open in 7

hope that helps.
