I am accustomed to using two digits in my bus numbering so that signal
names sort correctly. That means I would name a bus BUS[15:00] instead
of BUS[15:0] so that the lower signals would be BUS00, BUS01... I am
getting errors in Orcad about wires with only one connection. Is this
the reason? I don't see anything in the help that says I can or can't
do this.

OrCad doesn't tolerate leading zeros in a bus index.
Make a quicky 2-sheet test; you'll see.

Thanks, I just wanted to see if anyone knew for sure that Orcad did not
allow this. I have not done schematics in a year or two and all the
various tools seem to blend together after awhile. I expect I have
used the leading zero naming convention in VHDL or possible Viewlogic
which is the only other capture program I can recall working with.
