greg.ewing	Posted - 17 Jan 2007 : 22:30:53 Can a library can be recovered from a design? I've just had a disk failure, and because the library defaults to the program location (not a great idea, should be in its own data location, not in the OS!!) it was not in my latest data backup. The design looks ok, but if I need to modfy a part, I have a problem. How do I recover my parts? GE

Iain Wilkie	Posted - 14 Dec 2008 : 13:23:20 After having problems with this I think I may have discovered that if any of the design files are part of a project, then the project file must be available for this to work ok. I was sent a .sch file and a .pcb file from a customer, but I could not re-create properly until I got the .prj file. I could be wrong .... Iain BTW this is a handy utility ... could it be a sticky ?
DavidM	Posted - 18 Jan 2007 : 04:21:15 Hi Greg, yes, you can recover/rebuild libraries from any design file. If you go to the Libraries dialog and create yourself a new library of the relevant type, then click Add File, you can browse to the design file and open it. The program will then extract the relevant library information from the design into the library. regards David David Manns Technical Support Number One Systems
