When compiling and saving programs from V4R2, can you target the release of V3R1M0? We are thinking about upgrading to V4R2, but want to make sure this is still possible.

Is there a general rule of thumb as to how many prior versions/releases you can target back to?

Valid values depend on the current version, release, and modification level, and they change with each new release. See the Valid Values for TGTRLS Parameter table in the Backup and Recovery book for a complete list of valid values.
