Alan,
It's quite easy to import Viewdraw logic.
What you need are the .txt files created when the viewdraw netlist is
created. These .txt files are your device files, you can store them in a
devices directory, and point to them in your env file with set DEVPATH =

The next file you'll need is the .tel file, this is a 3rd party netlist
and is the output of viewdraw.
Inside Allegro,
IMPORT
LOGIC
Select OTHER
Browse to find the location of the .tel file.

www.e-tools.com used to have E-studio tool that converts
Viewdraw/DxDesigner schematics to ConceptHDL schematics.
