Opening project done in Cadence 16.6 with Free version 25.1

VA202606266120

Good day, one question please. I am new to Cadence, and I want to open a project done with Cadence version 16.6. I have downloaded the free tryal (version 25.1), but I am not able to open it. When I try to open the .cpm file from Allegro X system capture viewer, it says that the .cpm file is not an Allegro system capture project. Also, I have been able to open the PCB file (.brd), but not an schematic files. Is it possible to open this project from version 25.1?
I see a vhdl  file, and some .map, .csv, .csd, .csb, csa, which I understand are the schematic files.

Thanks a lot in advance,

best regards.

    Look like 16.6 project use concepthdl schematic. I am pretty sure it is not supported anymore by 25.1, Cadence "push" a new schematic tool instead (a mix of capture and concept).

    I guess you have to convert it. SInce i do not heve yet switch to 25.1 i can not help you further; maybe someone here...
