How to import the Design Entry DHL schematic Design to OrCAD Capture Schematic

Question

Dear Community, 
 I have a schematic design created in Design Entry HDL, and the file is saved with the .cpm extension. I am currently looking to import this schematic design into OrCAD Capture. 
 If anyone has a document or video tutorial outlining the detailed steps or procedures for importing a Design Entry HDL schematic design (.cpm) into OrCAD Capture, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share it with me. 
 Thank you in advance for your assistance and support. 
 Best regards, Rohit Rohan

Hi Rohit, 
 
 As of now, there is no direct way to convert Design Entry HDL schematic to Orcad CIS schematic. The reason is that concept symbols have a lib cell view structure. 
 Hence for every symbol tool will require this view. 
 #1. The longer route is to convert the DEHDL libraries to Capture Libraries by exporting concept library/cells into Capture's format which is .olb and redraw the circuit. 
 { How to? 
 Go to: Project Manager > Tools > Library tools > Export > Design Entry HDL to Orcad Capture . This will convert your concept library/cell into .olb format. } 
 #2. The shorted way is through the Elgris/Third party Translators , however this conversion is not very reliable.

Elgris translation from HDL to OrCAD comes with 100% netlist guarantee.
