We use our own custom Perl script, however when you install V15.7 look
in the PCB utilities

If you use this technique on a PC, search online for "setx" program
which can be used to set Environment Variables. Very convenience when
use it in a batch file to switch between versions.

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
