I'm using Orcad Capture 9.2

The beggining of my .EXP file is

DESIGN C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\CAMPB\Cambric_Age_probe.DSN
HEADER ID Part Reference Value PCB Footprint 1ST PART FIELD Manufacturer Notes
PARTOCC:6495 6495 R1 10 <null> 1% 100ppm 1/4W. Metal Film <null> <null>

PARTOCC:7075 7075 R43 10 <null> 1% 100ppm 1/4W. Metal Film <null> <null>

Any CLUE to solve this problem???

Regarding to error message "ERROR [IMP0021] (Line 177) Occurrence not found" Which is the line 1 in the .EXP file???, The one with the project (.DSN) path and name file???.

Added after 2 hours 23 minutes:

I've discovered some issues...

Line #1 is the line with the file name, i.e. "DESIGN C:\DOCUMENTS AND..." below.

Moving rows in the .EXP file I was able to identify one of the lines what caused the problem. It's in the 4th line

DESIGN C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ORCAD\PRECambricProbe.DSN
HEADER ID Part Reference Value PCB Footprint 1ST PART FIELD Manufacturer Notes
PARTOCC:6066 6066 D1 3V3 <null> ZENER 400MW MOTOROLA <null> <null>
PARTOCC:7869 7869 C21 30nF 1206 2KV 10% X7R - HIGH RELIABILITY Novacap 3333B303K202NHM
PARTOCC:2725 2725 R110 30K <null> <null> <null> <null>

PARTOCC:1970 1970 C64 30pF C0805 50V 2% 30ppm/°C Kemet Electronics C0805Z300G5GAH

Then I made a new EXP file and I got

DESIGN C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ORCAD\PRECambricProbe.DSN
HEADER ID Part Reference Value PCB Footprint 1ST PART FIELD Manufacturer Notes
PARTOCC:6066 6066 D1 3V3 <null> ZENER 400MW MOTOROLA <null> <null>

SO: the problem seems to be something has changed the "HEADER" and the "ID" values (5421 instead 7869) in my IMPORT_this.EXP (it has lot of this values changed :evil: )

Good Find,

Interesting, had not seen this error myself.
