Extract Library from Design Cache

EASiA

Hi All,

Is there a way to extract the library symbols from the design cache in OrCAD Capture? I tried to modify a part but it looks like it will not let me because it cannot find a corresponding library entry. I inherited a design file that does not have any library files.

    I just discovered that I was in error when I could not edit a part without the library. Apparently there was an issue with the bounding box: Invalid rectangle. Redraw from top-left to bottom-right. I still would like to know how to extract a library if one does not exist from the design cache if possible.
