Thanks, Tony. Maybe Dennis is right. Or maybe Protel didn't want to work on odd days.
I opened another project and this time it let me see the schematic. Everything looks nice. I see the net names as they should look like but when I click on the wire, I don't see any properties, that could show me that this label belongs to this wire. How do you handle this? I can place a lable and a junction on the line, too. I can place several net labels on one and the same wire with different names. What will I get on the PCB? How this wire would be called there? Thanks, Mira. --- Tony Karavidas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > No, if it was a sample file generate with Protel 99, > it doesn't matter which > service pack. > > Are you opening a DDB file that includes both PCB > and SCH?
