can't read old ddf-file

[PtrZet]

I have some old ddf-files of 10 years ago and I can't open them.

When I open an old .ddf I can see Ultiboard is starting and making a screen and then .....   the computer hangs.

The old .sch from Ulticap I can read by opening the .sch and save it as .utsch.

In Ultiboard there is no such a possibility because the files still end with .ddf.

Can I convert this .ddd-files?

Hello PtrZet,

Which new versions of Multisim and Ultiboard are you using now?

Regarding Ultiboard you should be able to open .ddf files coming from versions Ultiboard 4 & 5.

Which version were you using?

Older files that are coming from earlier versions should first be opened in Ultiboard 5 and saved in one of the supported formats.
