Back annotation in OrCAD Capture

CnoyOnTheGo

Hi everyone,

I am trying to back annotate a design from PADS Layout to OrCAD Capture. I already have the SWP file which looks like this

*PADS-ECO-V9.1-METRIC*

*REMARK* -- Untitled -- Wed Aug 04 09:11:53 2010


*RENPART*
Y1 Y2
*END*

I have removed all the PADS Headers so the SWP file now remains is,

Y1 Y2

Now, when I back annotate in OrCAD Capture and selecting the SWP fiel, an error message appears:

********************************************************************************
*
*  Performing back annotation.
*
********************************************************************************
ERROR [GAT0001]   (Line 1) Expecting a reference designator: *RENPART*
Back annotation complete.

Can someone explain to me this error? And what will be the workaround for this?

Thanks in advance.
