You can select only one dbc file (DataSource points to the database) for adding 
parts to OrCAD Capture but if you create a new dbc, which points to a different 
datasource (database) then you can select/add parts from the different database.

Group:
Is it possible to run run more than databases in Capture? We have multiple 
locations where everyone is doing their own orcad symbols. I would like to add 
another database and use their Orcad parts with there numbering system and 
package a board with their database. The Allegro parts we could use the share 
footprints libraries i don't think that would be a concern.

Thanks

Sam
