PSpice generated file in OrCAD Capture

Greetings again...

Giving up on the formal tutorial I mentioned in my other post, I created a simple little circuit with two meshes.  The kind we all did in entry level classes.  My goal is to use the ability to generate PSpice files.  I have used the older public version 8 of PSpice.

When I ask OrCAD to generate a file, it doesn't include the .PRINT command, so the output doesn't display any of the basic values I am after (node voltages, currents, etc).  I could edit the file manually, and feed it to the previous PSpice version, but that's not what I expect I need to do.  I expect that this should all be integrated with the PSpice that ver 16 DEMO installed.

How/where is the .PRINT command controlled in OrCAD?  I can't find anything which will insert it in any of the dialogs.

Thanks.

Scotty

    The Probe WIndow won't display anything for the Bias simulation since this is a simple steady state with nothing changing. View the Output File, this will list the node voltages at the start of the simulation, actually the end for a Bias Simulation. In Capture, you can also turn on the Bias Markers and have the initial steady state values displayed on the schematic.
