If you accepted the default, then you aren't using a database. The
default is XML for all platforms.
But I don't think it would be wise to run two different major versions
to access the same file.
There is a possibility you could use 4.1 and 3.11 (the last 3.x release)
but you'd have to get a developer to verify.

Is the same GnuCash database compatible back and forth between v4.1 and v3.1
applications?
I run GnuCash on my Windows PC at home. However, when traveling I like to copy
my GC database onto my little Ubuntu notebook and enter new data while away
from home.When I return home, I copy the updated database file back onto my
Windows PC.
Adrian has me interested in updating my Window copy of GC to v4.1, but I gather
that there might be issues in getting my Ubuntu edition of GC updated to v4.1.
Thus, my question as to whether I could use GC v4.1 on Windows, copy my
database to my notebook, update the data with GC v3.1 and then painlessly bring
the database back for use with v4.1?
Unfortunately, I don't remember the format of my GC database and don't see how
to display it. As I recall, I just accepted the default during installation.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
