A Oracle7 client can, will, and does talk to a 9.2.0 database
with no problem.

See note 172179.1 on Metalink. To quote:
"In short, any version of SQL*Net's version 2 Client (2.3.x) and
up to Net 9.0.x, will be able to connect to any version of
Oracle Database version 7.3.x and up to 9.2.x, with certain
compatibility issues that are explained below"

I'm not sure of the export compatibility, but you should know that 9i
clients won't talk to a 7.3.4 database, and 7.3.4 clients won't talk to a
9.2 database, which could be a problem. At least, they're not certified
to talk to each other, which isn't quite the same thing.

Subject: backwards export
Hi,
We are investigating possibilities for migration of an oracle 7.3.4 to
oracle 9i. We want to separate our
production DB from the app-logic such that we can migrate from oracle
7.3.4 on hp-ux 10.20 to oracle 9i
on hp-ux 11. Problem is our development and test-environment because we
cannot separate the logic at the
same time here also from the db (costs). Does anyone have any experience
with exporting from oracle 9i
to oracle 7.3.4 ?
I found the underlying note on metalink about the same problem but with
oracle 8. I have limited experience on oracle8
and none on oracle 9. So I hope you can give some tips.

You need to run the 7.3 version of export against your 8.0 database via
sqlnet/net8. Beforehand, you need to run rdbms/admin/catexp7.sql against
your 8.0 database. This creates the 7.3 export views required. Note that
if you have used any 8.0 specific features (e.g. objects) these will not
be exported for obvious reasons.

Tia,
