Swapping in DSPF netlists using the Hierarchy Editor?

Hi, I'm using UltraSim.

Is there a way to swap in DSPF netlists using the Cadence Hierarchy Editor so that when I netlist using ADE I get DSPF netlists for certain cells (as controlled by the Hierarchy Editor)?

The current method I'm aware of is using the Simulation -> Options -> Analog and stitching in the DSPF.

Thanks!

    Awesome, thanks! I found the cell in the Hierarchy Editor and set it to use the DSPF. Then I edited the CDF for the cell to have the same terminal names and order as the DSPF. I used the Hierarchy Editor to open the schematic and from the schematic I launched ADE. In ADE, I set the simulator as Ultrasim and created the netlist. In the netlist I don't see anything that indicates the DSPF is being included. Are there any steps in the Hierarchy Editor such as editing the Inherited View List that may need to be done?
