Gary,
        If your on a PC, and running windows:

        --->Right click on My Computer
                --->Click Properties
                        --->Advanced Tab
                                ---> Environment Variables
                                
        Edit the variable "CDSROOT" so that it points at 
        the installation directory.

        If your in unix enviroment, check with your IT
        support person. (a startup script may be required)

==========================================================

        In my case I would change the "CDSROOT" variable

                From:   D:\Cadence\SPB_15.5.1

                To:     D:\Cadence\SPB_15.7

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Switching between two versions of Allegro PCB



Hey guys,

 

I remember this being discussed in the past, having two versions of
Allegro PCB loaded, then switching between them.

I am on 15.5.1 (will probably go up to 15.7 soon), and might need to
load in a 16.0 board now and then.

 

Could someone tell me what you need to do to switch between the two
versions?

I'm guessing pointing to two versions of env files, right?

 

Thanks for any help!

 

Gary
