Hi Andrew,

You are right, it is there.  Thank you.  I never thought to look for a SKILL
routine to do this, I figured this should be do-able in the program it self,
and I know I can by selecting them individually and I'm sure at least a few
other more efficient ways.  I guess I can select, using constraints manager,
all the nets that aren't part of a group (thus all the default nets), and
apply a width change to them all that way.  Hum, sounds like a winner.  I'll
have to learn more about SKILL routines, now that my proficiency with
Allegro is growing rapidly.

Regards,

Austin
