    Hi C10,

    Do you mean how to instantiate another pcell within a pcell? If so, you would use the dbCreateParamInst or dbCreateParamInstByMasterName function (covered in the documentation).

    Ah, hang on, that seems to be the same as your question http://www.cadence.com/community/forums/T/17369.aspx - so I think you're going to have to clarify what exactly you mean!

    Regards,

    Andrew.
