Orcad Capture 16.6 compatibility

I'm looking for a way to make a Capture library generated in 16.0 compatible with 16.6? Or a design generated in 16.6 compatible with 16.0.

    You will be able to use the 16.0 OLB file directly but it would be preferable to open the OLB file in 16.6 and save it to the 16.6 format for use with 16.6. To get a 16.6 design back for use with 16.0, select the DSN file in the Project Manager Window and File>Save As, change the Files of Type to Capture 16.2 DSN to save back to the 16.2 and earlier format.
