Hi Lavern, I've done many of these. As Peter mentioned, you NEED the Unix environment to run the converter from. The Scald data resides off a Unix environment. Have you done scald? Do you have the Unix box? If you've answered yes to both of these, and also have the data (tape backups?), then you might be able to do it. If not, you'll waste lots of time and effort. What you first have to do is figure out where your library resides. That gets converted first. After that, and you have "THE" library ported to HDL, you can easily transition the schematics. (simply point at the old .csa/.csb files). BUT! you need the libraries. Good day. Mitch > > Peter, > > Have you done the conversion yourself?
