Richard
Have you tried to save a new padstack as r11x44m instead of _mod?
the _mod really shouldn't be a problem. I also believe that where the
tool
is saving the padstack to may not be where allegro is looking for the
padstacks.

Richard,
 
No, there is no flash involved.  It is a pure rectangular SMT pad with
the soldermask modified.

        I've managed to clear a few more cob webs. The problem showed up
when I loaded a flash in Allegro. Does this pad stack have a flash? Try
to look at it.

        Thanks Richard.  This padstack is in the same directory with
others that I have no problem loading into the padstack editor (they
don't have the "_mod" at the end).

                I've seen this before. I'm not sure but, check if there
are any spaces in any of the directory names in the total path.

                Hey guys,
                 
                Anyone see this while trying to edit a padstack?  I have
a padstack that I modified from another one with "_mod" at the end (i.e.
the padstack is named "r11x44_mod.pad").  Could it be the "_"?  I tried
replacing the "_" with a "-", then taking it out altogether, same
results.  Only when I remove the "mod", can I edit the padstack!  I can
edit ones without the "_mod" all I want.
                 
                Thanks for any replies!
