OLD properties Persist in ic selector window after querying

nandikkara

Hi,

I have configured CIS first time  with excel as the database. everything looks fine. when im querying on CIS explorer, no proplem. After that I've created new configuration file with Microsoft access as database. The new database contains entirely different properties from the old excel database. In both cases ive edited the Capture.ini file just editing the schematic part library directories. But after configuring, i opened Z(explorer),

1. I've used explore tab for searching components, then, properties from new database only are displaying in ic selector window. fine no problem.

2. when i used query tab, and searched. properties which are there in old excel database (not in new database. damn sure) are displaying along with properties from new database. from where it comes?. i ve attached the images.

PCB Footprint and Description are there in the new database also. thats y their values are shown i assume. Currently it doent make any problem. I want to know from where it comes?. am i done any thing wrong?

Thanks in Advance :)

    Queries are saved in the capture.ini file, if you overhaul the database, it would be best to delete the existing capture.ini and start again with a "blank" version. Your library configuration would be saved and restored. Check the location of the "live" capture.ini file from the Session Log when Capture CIS starts.
