Before you gave up , you might one to look at this doc by Cadence.
http://www.cadence.com.tw/upload/Faq/F000091.pdf
It has to do with Down Rev from 15.xx to 14.xx. Which is not available
inside 15.xx maybe is the same with 16.0 to 15.XX???

That's what I thought might be the case and also what I was "afraid"
of......C'est la vie....

I would say since the first thing it does is uprev the database and they
went to an “object oriented database” for 16.0 there is not going back,
unless Cadence writes a downrev script.

Hi Gary,
Thanks, I see it in 15.7 to other 15.x but I am hoping that it is also in
16.0 to 15.x? or is it a major release and there is no going back?
Thanks,

Hey Dharma,
No, I think I misread your post!
Ok, so in 15.5.7, I can go:
File -> Export -> Save design to 15.0…
or
File -> Export -> Save design to 15.2…
Do you see this option in File -> Export? This might only work within a
major release.
Good luck

Hi Gary,
Thank you. I was actually looking to find out if once a board is in
version 16.0 whether or not it can be opened in 15.7 and worked on by
someone else.
sorry for the lack of clarity,

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,
