Dear Greg Olson,
I have been using Protel 99 for a little over a year now, and I've always used
the "Design | Update PCB" and "Design | Update Schematic" tools. That method
seems to be just as reliable (at least in SP5) as loading a netlist the other
way with "Design | Create netlist..." and "Design | Load nets...", and it
certainly takes fewer clicks of the mouse.
