ORCAD CIS Database

jatins

Hi

I have recently upgraded my OrCAD release from 16.6 to 17.2. In 16.6 release, i have been using CIS feature and placing the parts from our .mdb database. I was just wondering if i have to do the same for this 17.2 release because i didnt find any database for our components in the CIS Explorer in 17.2

Is there is a feature in 17.2 release which can be used to share the same CIS database as for 16.6? 

Thanks

    Hi again

    I am trying to setup CIS Database in Orcad 17.2 and it didnt went well. I have 32-bit MS Office Installed on 64-bit machine and as 17.2 Version is a pure 64-bit, i tried to follow this link to install the 64-bit ODBC Driver such that it can work properly:- support.cadence.com/.../cos
    I can set up the Data Source Name without any trouble but when i try to run Database Configuration Wizard to create the .cfg file in OrCAD, It is giving me the following error:-
    ODBC Error Code: -1
    Description: The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
    Shouldn't following the above link resolve the problems for OrCAD?
    Thanks
