That's tricky because sequence jobs changed a lot between those two versions. You could try exporting an empty 7.1 job and a full 7.5 job into text export files and then copy and paste stages from the full job to the empty job.

You might be able to copy the job control code from a 7.5 sequence job to a 7.1 batch job. I doubt if you can import the job.

I suggest you use 2 PC's side-by-side and painstakingly recreate the job.

It may be possible. However, if you have use any of the activities that are new in 7.5 (StartLoop, EndLoop, UserVariables, Terminator), then it will not work.
