Hi colleagues,
I have an issue with .DBC file creation in Orcad CIS, could somebody help me?
We have a MS Access database connected through the system ODBC MS Access connector (as shown on the pictures). In the database we have an ID column (automaticaly generated unique number) to be able to clearly identify each component. When I want to set this ID parameter as Property type "Part_Number" in CIS (DBC file) there is an error while saving the DBC file (as shown on picture below):
ERROR(ORCIS-6233): The Table Property Type of the field ID in table PARTS is not of type TEXT, STRING or CHARACTER. The Table Property Type of the field assigned as Property Type Part_Number has to be one of the above.
in the database we have also some virtual components so not all columns are always filled, this is the reason why we want to identify component according to the ID number (to be able View Database Part in Orcad).
Thanks.
Regards
Petr
