     I am very happy for your quick response .........
    I am using IC514 version of cadence.
    We have been provided by a PDK kit. We instantiating everything from this 'gpdk90' kit library.
    My question is - suppose if I have stacked via(1 or 2)s at differnt places . How can I place another via(2 or 3) at same location by pressing a key or with a skill code.
    I know one possible solution.......i.e
    I have selected the vias where I want to copy another vias. I pressed copy command..
    and in CIW window I have entered like this
    (0:0) enter
    (0:0)
    And in layout Window I have pressed 'q'(property form) and I changed them into another vias there by copying one via onto another via at same location.....
    But I am looking for a better solution fo this..........
