Do you really execute this same command word by word except for file name ??# e/ b, s3 p4 E7 [) v- f% ^
5 G( r, J; O& w$ G#1: execute the following command in XP command prompt: _1 Z: w; S+ y8 ?

if you execute the same command, except for file name, I do not see how it could create nine txt file, plus *.a_b file (what is that ??)* _, y% J* e$ k- _

why not copy your brd file + hyp.txt to allegro extracta.exe directory ("X:\cadence\spb_16.2\tools\pcb\bin") and execute #1 command to see if it create those three files or not ?? (I bet it will unless there is error at brd file)+ j" G) C+ D' j& Y

And I think you are using SPB 15.x version that are still with "extract.exe". New SPB 16.x is with "extracta.exe". They should be same as function wise. I have another PC still installed with spb 15.5 ("extract.exe") and got the same result as SPB 16.2 ("extracta.exe")
