Charlie Edmondson - Orcad bus names using leading 0's

I am accustomed to using two digits in my bus numbering so that signal names sort correctly. That means I would name a bus BUS[15:00] instead of BUS[15:0] so that the lower signals would be BUS00, BUS01... I am getting errors in Orcad about wires with only one connection. Is this the reason? I don't see anything in the help that says I can or can't do this.

Jim Thompson suggested I put your name in the subject line...

Ok, double checked. Capture does not support leading zeros in bus names.

Ok, thanks. I guess I am remembering what I used to do in VHDL.

I like to use double digits so that all the signal names will sort correctly in any text format like in a spreadsheet or even a simple entry in a Word document. So I guess I will still have to sort the docs by hand.

I am still on SDT/386 and love it :) 1994 vintage.

With Protel PCB 2.8, c. 1995.

It does all I need.
