Background: I was sent a set of files to open and make into a PCB. They are DXP 2004 vintage. I open DXP 2004 (Build 8.0.4.1272) and look for a schematic. There are a bunch of SCHDOC files, a DOT file, and a PrjPcb file. I open the PrjPcb file and there are 3 errors: 1) a SchLib could not be found even though it is listed among the files, 2) and IntLib could not be found but didn't exist in the files, and 3) A SchDoc could not be found but didn't exist in the file. It said all 3 were removed from the project. OK, a bunch of files come up. Looks pretty much like a set of schematic sheets.
Questions: 1) How do I open all schematic sheets so I can easily browse through them without having to open them one at a time? 2) How do I run DRC on the schematic? 3) What is the best Netlist format to export to P-CAD 2002. In the past I was using the *.alt file format (Master Designer?) from 99SE, but that does not appear to be available any more. 4) Do I need to compile this and if so how? 5) When I choose any of the .prj file or .SchDoc files I can do Design => Netlist For Project. I then select the Tango format. When I do this is seems to go through all the sheets, and then... The DXP closes altogether. There does not appear to be any netlist file generated, in the directory or referenced in the project when I try to open it up. 6) What is the difference between a project and a design?
