Hi,
I have 2 questions:
1) I want to copy all the cells of a library to another library. the
problem is that the cells copyed have the same reference library of
the old library. how can I change their reference library?

2) I want to create a new library (I used the function dbCreateLib)
and I want to attach it to the same techfile of the others library
opened in the library manager. so how can I have the name of the
techFile and how to attach it?

Could you please help me?
thank you

Hi Manell,

1. There are loads of examples in this forum about this topic. Just
google it in here. These are couple of them as a sample:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.cad.cadence/browse_thread/thread/5e3e1eaef88e4bfe/5913aa2c2af536c4?lnk=gst&q=rename+reference+library#5913aa2c2af536c4

2.1. how can I have the name of the techFile ?
Pick up one of the libraries, let say "myLib" and then use the
following skill functions:
libObj=ddGetObj("myLib")
techLibName=techGetTechLibName(libObj)
FYI: The following skill returns a list of the libs as in the lib
Manager:
libList=dbGetq(ddGetLibList() name)

2.2. how to attach it?
techBindTechFile skill function will help you.
I have contributed on a similar question some time back, please give a
look at the following :

Hope this help you !
