dbSet problem

Hi all,
I am trying to change my net names using dbSet but I got the error
message that "dbSet: dbSetq: Can not set attribute - name". Is there
any permission problem? Thanks in advance...

You cannot change a net name. You have to create a new, empty net and
merge the old net into the new one. As I recall, you also have to update
the pins and terminals if you want them to all have the same name. I am
away from documentation today, but look for dbMergeNet. You do something
like this, though I may have the parameter order backward:

dbMergeNet(oldNet dbMakeNet(cvid "newName"))

 

Thanks for the reply, seem like I manage to marge net but the problem
is the name of the net changes from "|Frist_stage|bus(0)" to
"First_stage|bus<0>" and shows a lot of error...such that "the pin
should be on "|First_stage|bus(0)" but now on "First_stage|bus<0>" (
The pipe is missing. ) and funny error like the pin should be on "gnd!"
but now on "gnd!". Don't know what is happening...
