Dharma,
Below is a post I saved from Michael Catrambone.
I think this is what you are looking for. I haven't tried it myself, I
still just have 15.5.1 loaded.
Good luck

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Re: Switching between two versions of Allegro PCB
Importance: High
Hey Gary,
I have had great success using the Cadence Switch Release executable
which has been part of the standard Cadence install for some time now
<Install Dir>\tools\bin\switchversion.exe). This will list all the
Allegro releases at the time of installation and you simply select the
release and click OK.
I have 15.5.1, 15.7 and 16.0 loaded on the same PC and I execute the
Cadence Switch Release executable from the last loaded release and
select the lower version you would like to run.
The only thing that I have to worry about is the location of the PCBENV
directory for each of the releases which can be easily controlled by
re-targeting your HOME directory to a different location.
New to SPB 16.0, is a new Windows environmental variable
(ALLEGRO_PCBENV) that gives the ability to re-target your PCBENV
directory to a different location without having to change you HOME
directory.
Hope this helps,

Hi Everyone,
I thought I had seen somewhere that it was possible to take a board done
in 16.0 back to 15.7 but now I am not finding any info on that...has
anyone been able to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance,
