Opening a file is not a new feature it should work as far back as PS version 7 when the scripting support plug-in was an optional download.  Before that Adobe plug-in Photoshop could not be scripted. So the answer is no will not work in Photoshop versions 0 throught version 6 there was no scripting feature in them..

Should work, its pretty basic statement. I don't have these versions installed so can't test it, you can try and if it does not work come back with error details
