Unable to backannotate, need help

DanielAmir
DanielAmir over 15 years ago

Greetings,

 I am experiencing a problem while I am trying to backannotate the swapped pins to the schematic. It keeps complaining:

"Unable to backannotate the changes to design file "\ABCD\.DSN" because the original design file used to create the board has a different name "ABCD.DSN". Choose the correct design file and backannotate again."

But I have used the same file to create the PCB and I don't have  any idea where those "\"s are comming from. Does any one have any idea?

Thanks,

Daniel
