Net List Name vs Port Name -- Newbie Protel DXP Question

B

benn

I have a level shifter IC and 2 headers on a board..

So in the schematic I have a header with different port names for each
pins. On the IC, Id like to connect to these header pins without
drawing wires all over the place, so I created a port name to a wire
going to the IC that matches the port pin that I wish to connect of
the header.

This doesnt seem to work, when I compile I get "multiple input"
errors.

How can I do this? All the signals will come from the header, go to
the IC, and from the IC to another header.
What am I doing wrong??

2way of reverse eng need of 3th way

I'm working as reverse eng. using altium summer 08
after placing commponends
to define nets you can
1.make schematic and wire and update them to pcb
or
2.on pcb editor after placing components it's possible to change,add or remove nets
using design -> netlist -> edit nets
but both of them need too much time
you can get report of nets like below by
design -> netlist -> export netlist from pcb
