startup config options for Allegro

Hi all.

I'm running 16.6 on Win7, and am having some interesting problems. In my attempts to diagnose exactly what's going on, I stumbled across a posting where someone outlined the command line options for starting allegro. The file:

 C:\Cadence\SPB_16.6\share\pcb\batchhelp\allegro.txt

- suggests launching with the executable with "-product help", but the result of this is shown in a popup that isn't big enough to show all the output, and can't be resized =/

Does anybody know a good online ref for all the command line options that can be fed into allegro at startup?

The crux of what I'm struggling with is that when I get Capture to generate a netlist and spawn allegro, it tries to call Allegro PCB Design XL, and fails. Our licensed versions of Allegro are "Designer" or "Design L", and I typically use the High-Speed option for the former. I've tried hunting through every .ini and .bat file I could find in the CDS directories, to no avail.

Has anyone had to deal with this before, and have any ideas where I should be looking?

 Please advise.

TIA,
