Highlight location xy in rpt file

luanvn81

 Hi everyone!

 I have a code which print out a report file (ex: a.rpt) as below:

Via Start Layer   Via End Layer     Via Location
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (5.5:42.5)
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (5.5:40.5)
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (6.0:84.0)
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (6.0:86.0)

 I want to highlight location xy with one color  and after I checked a location , it will change into one other color( at the same way dangling report check in allegro)

How can I do it? 

Tks.

Luan.

    Hi Pawandeep

     You are right, the problem is the lack of highlighting in a user report. I should have read Luan's post more closely.

    I also would like to find out if it's possible to do.

    See if this does what you want:

    Go to Setup->User Preferences->Html and make sure the "Enable HTML" box is checked.

    Then open your file using File->File Viewer.
