[PEDA] switch from tango to protel

[Ray]

After decades of using ORCAD (EDA/DOS) for schematic capture
and using TANGO for PCB
Some years ago I started using protel 99 se for it's autorouter.

I opened tango files in protel advanced pcb, saved then opened in protel 99 se

After autorouting I exported to protel advanced pcb in text file format.

I then wrote a qb45 dos program to convert this text file back to tango file format.

Last video card I could use with winxp was nvidia grforce 2
all newer cards will not support tango/orcad dos programs.

So now I would like to use protel for everything.
I did lose all my documentation years ago.
I tried altium dxp but that is way over the top for my simple needs.
So I am asking for so quick help here and there to get up to speed with protel 99 se
via email and or IM.

Sorry to be so old school.
Thanks,
Ray
