I tried that, it finds all unconnected pins (which I have a lot of) and 
did  not find a named net with only one connection (just a net name on only 
one unused pin).  The single pin net does appear in the netlist (generated 
from the pcb), so it isn't flagged as an unconnected pin.

thanks,
Richard
