cdc2fab(fabmaster/unicam) doesn't run in v16.2

For some years I have been producing pick and place data with cdc2fab(fabmaster/unicam), works fine in v15.x, crashes in v16.2.  Anybody know if there is an update, or even where to find the people?  Can't read the file, because it's .exe.

    No idea where an exe to do this might have originated from.

    There is a cds2f in the Allegro SKILL library on SourceLink, that should get the job done. The SKILL routine, in turn, runs extracta, so, if you don't like the results, you can hack the code. You will need the BRD file on a local, non-networked, resource to get the output on Windows, this may, or may not, be the case on UNIX.

     Just to let you know I ran  the CDC2FAB scripts on a 16.2 board with no problem.  You do have change the CDC2FAB config to browse to the new extraction tool in C:\Cadence\SPB_16.2\tools\pcb\bin\extracta.exe or where ever your instal path points to.
