You can't open 15.x with 14.x any version, but you may be able to use clip files to go between versions. Just a thought.

Once you open (and save) either a board, symbol drawing etc. in a new version, you then cannot open it in a previous version. That is why when we decide to move up to the latest and greatest version, we are sure about it and don't look back. Good luck! Gary E. MacIndoe PCB Design Engineer Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
