  Gary,

  When in Allegro access the old reports UI with the command old_reports.
The env var controls the reports.exe batch program.

    Jerry,

    Hmmm... I can set "allegro_old_report" under Misc. in User Preferences,
and all it does is set the reports to text based, not HTML.  It has nothing
to do with the selection of reports.

    The problem is not being able to run the old "ecl short" report.

      Gary,

          On a UNIX platform I set the variable ALLEGRO_OLD_REPORT to run
the old style
      reports in a shell tool. The ECL, long and short, reports are still
there.

        Kesavan,

        Wow, I have used this method for years to compare the lengths of
selected nets (put "ecl" property on nets to compare, then just run the "ecl
short" (or "ecl long") report)).

        It looks like you can still put the "ecl" property on a net, but
there are no ecl (short or long) reports available to run.  Looks like maybe
they are forcing us to use CM.

        They now have the report "Etch Length by Net Report", which lists
all nets.  It is in alpha/numeric order of net name, not listed by net
length.

        Maybe someone out there knows how to do it on 15.2.  Good luck!

          HI everyone,

          Please tell me how can I generate ECL report in Allegro ver 15.2,
as
          we did in Allegro ver 14.2. I used this property to check NET
          LENGTHS without using any EXCEL PROCESS and even without knowing
the
          name of particular NETS in 14.2.

          How can I generate ECL report in Allegro ver 15.2.

          Now what is the use ECL property.

          Thanks in Advance.

          Kesavan.T
