I am using Orcad version 9.2 to create orcad symbols. I am trying to follow a method described earlier in the same newsgroup. I am describing pointwise the steps am following:
1) I downloaded the pinout table from Xilnx website 2) I sort the pinout in excel based on bank number 3) I create a new part in a library in Orcad and place the number of pins I need using "place pin array" command 4) I select the pins whose name and pin number have to be changed and press "CTRL + E" and I get the browse spreadsheet editor in Orcad.After that I am not able to do anything other than copy the contents of the Browse spreadsheet editor. To insert the pin names I select the coloumn "Name" and I press ctrl + insert, but nothing happens For instance after I select the "Name" coloumn to be replaced by the contents I am trying to paste, the commands like "paste" , "copy" among others just goes unusable(the letters on those commands goes grey from black). Actually the paste is not active at all irrespective of whether I select any coloumn or not.
Is this a version problem? I see Rotem Gazit had posted this message in 2001. Please let me know if you have experienced this difficulty before.
