How to combine multiple schematic diagrams from different DSN?

LG202511188241

I have three DSN files exported from Altium schematics of three boards and now I need to combine the three boards into a single board.

I've changed the references of two boards, to avoid duplicates, but when I copy and then paste schematics, I have this error:

What can I do to combine schematics with Orcad X Capture 25.1?

Thanks

    The possible cause of the error ORCAP-1746 can be if the design being pasted contains parts that are out of sync with the parts in the target design. To solve this error, compare the two design caches.

    Try replacing the cache on matching parts to pull them from the same library.

    Thanks for your answer, Jeet.

    I solved editing the three .DSN files with a binary editor and changing the library paths: E:\Temp\0\... in the first .DSN, E:\Temp\1\... in the second .DSN and E:\Temp\2\... in the third .DSN.

    This workaround worked for me and I was able to copy and paste the schematics

    Best regards
