consistency error after adding frame to PCB

rickford66

I added a frame to my PCB and suddenly I get a consistency error.  "Part U$1 has different values in schematic and board (0V /)"  Part U$1 is a power connection to a 0V potential.  The entire trace (net) on the PCB is called 0V.  What gives?

Thanks.

    This is just to button up this thread.  The problem was solved by CadSoft support.  I had to send them my files.  My error was that when I created some custom power pins, I forgot to give them a part name, so they defaulted to U$1, U$2, etc.  This wasn't a problem until I brought in a frame.  It was also called U$1.  The solution was to go and give names to my supplies in the library, and replace the parts on the schematic.  Now they are named Supply1, Supply2, etc.  I never found a way to name the PCB frame in the library, but I was able to name it after placing it.  It's all good now.
