Jim, My fresh VM of WIN7 64bit already has an association for .sch files. I points to schdpl32.exe, MS schedual+ I think you need to scan the registry for these extensions: .sch .slb .mvl And delete the entries. You'll find them in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and HKEY_CURRENT USER You might want to delete all the keys tha have psched.exe in them too. Then reinstall Pspice. My demo does not over write associations so it never set up the .sch association. There may be an additional key that makes every thing work that did not get setup. Cheers
OT: DDE Psipce

I have autorun disabled, but I installed PSpice by clicking setup.exe... I should have right-clicked setup.exe ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson | mens | | Analog Innovations | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | San Tan Valley, AZ 85142 Skype: skypeanalog | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | I love to cook with wine.
