The same holds true for Fujitsu Network Communications....we've been supplying ODB++ exclusively to our Fab houses for over a decade. We also use Enterprise 3000 to extract it. We package additional drawings and data into defined directories before the ODB zip file is created (for instance detailed information for routes, v-grooves, counter-bores, etc. where both Allegro and ODB lack specific support).

We do close to 50 designs a month and I don’t recall there ever being a problem that was traced back to a Valor bug – or if there was, it was very, very long ago.However, we read the extracted Allegro database into Valor’s Enterprise tool . We don’t use the direct ODB++ output from Allegro.Douglas G.
