Identifying Overlapping Vias in PCB Editor

Gipper

I've had a couple projects now where the contract manufacturer has come back to me saying there are overlapping vias in the drill file. I must be double-clicking a little too fast when adding vias? 

Is there any way these overlapping vias can be detected in OrCAD PCB Editor? I am using OrCAD PCB Designer Professional 17.4-2019 S016.

    There is a Duplicate drill DRC that can be enabled. Look at Setup - Constraint Modes - Design - General and make sure the DRC is enabled.
