Bill,
I think you misunderstood what everyone has been saying. You can't import
the Tango schematic with any Protel tool. You can import the PCB with
Protel 2.8, then save it in ASCII format and import it into any of the
newer Protel versions. You can directly import the Tango netlist into any
newer Protel version without pre-processing.
Been there... tried all of that.

I have not tried PCAD because I don't have a copy of PCAD here to experiment
with... I do have Protel 2.8 though and we might try importing with that...

I think Bill also has PCad 2K, so there is a possibility here.
PCad2K also imports Tango PCBs, even better than Protel 2.8 (on polygons).
PCad2K also imports Tango ASCII schematics, the trick here is to have the
complete Tango schematic library, then you have to use Library Executive to
import the Tango Library to the PCad format, setup the library in the PCad
schematic program, and then import the Tango schematic.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards,
Paulo Egon
