I have a .sch file generated from Questa Prime (Mentor).
I am trying to open it with ORCAD so that I can edit the same. However, when I follow the below steps all I get is a text file describing signal names, color, orientation etc. with no errors.
How can i view the symbol file in ORCAD? Kindly provide suggestions
Sample of text file is shown below:
