Please respond to
Protel EDA Forum
Robert,
it seems it is a shame that you did not find this newsgroup
sooner. I understand your gripes about Protel documentation and bug
reporting but I too have found 'similar' issues with most other packages.
This newsgroup makes the interface to Protel much less painful and it
supplies the best technical support that I have found anywhere for any CAD
package, no one can compare to the gang providing free advice and technical
support on this newsgroup 24-7.
Sincerely,
Brad Velander.
