Edit Netlist

Hi,

I'm drawing an PBC (my second board) and I already made the routing in Orcad PCB designer.
I need to add a new component in the circuit and edit the netlist. Is possible to import a new netlist without have to made a new board?

I tried it but I received error when I created the new netlist.
But If I create the new netlist in a new board (empty) I don't receive any error.

Thanks in advance for the help.

    Of course.  There is no need to make a new board.  New netlist should just add to the board.  Unless something is seriously wrong with your process this should be a push-button update.  What error are you getting?

    But I don't understand the the option " Run ECO to Layout" in the Layout Menu. What does it do?
