Protel99SE SP6 & Win98SE open a ddb and open a project that is hierarchical.
now Menue -> Tools -> Database Links and perform an update of the schematics from an DB4 file. A report BOM shows that the partfields have been updated (they were empty before the Update) so now close the sch files by doing so on the tabbing pane (above the schematic sheet with the name of the current file inside) and select close document. now protel just closes this document without asking for saving it nor does it save the file with the changes from the update. reopen the schematic an the fields are as the were before the update ... that ist realy very bad, as the database update takes so much time even with 600MHz. my design here takes about 50minutes and is not very big. (no it ist not the network). i have cross checked that with different designs on different installations. Dipl.-Ing.
