Can someone explain to me how buses hierarchy work in Protel (99SE sp6?)
It can be a tad tricky. The key is in understanding how the netlister
recognises what is connected to what. And there is a program shortcoming
that requires a workaround.

Apparently, however, Protel connects sheet entry ports to buses only by

serious deficiency...
To make the connectivity work as desired, without monkeying with the
subsheets, I do not find simple. I
design I've ever seen that makes sense--other CAD vendors [hint hint]
should wise up and rip it off!!
