How do I fix a schematic load error: line 8041, column 6: redefinition of name 'DIG[0..7]' in tag <bus>

Former Member

I redefined a bus name using the information window rather that using the name tool.  Now the circuit schematic won't load because of the following error:

line 8041, column 6: redefinition of name 'DIG[0..7]' in tag <bus>

 

How can I fix the file?

    Hi

     

    You can either:

     

    1. open the schematic in a text editor and correct the error at line

    8041. Post your schematic here, if you like, and we can have a look at

    the xml. Tell us what the bus name should be and I can likely at least

    make it load.

     

    2. Revert to the last good saved version of you design. The board and

    schematic pairs save as .s#1 and .b#2 in the project directory. So

    change the names of a pair to .sch and .brd and try those. First name

    the damaged pair something else.

     

     

     

    I was able to rename a bus from the info box trying all combinations I

    felt would trip it up, with no problem

    Woopps

     

    The pairs will have the same number

    i.e. .s#1 and .b#1

    .s#2 and .b#2
