how to transfer netlist from Orcad Capture to Allegro?

O.K. so today learn how to transfer netlist from cadence orcad to allegro 16.
again, the cute window system do the foolish style.
I successfully generate the netlist from cadence orcad capture, and it open the allegro 16.
However, i cannot find the component when i click placed manaually,

I panicked...haiz
then i look online and find the post about cadence, but now i cannot retrieve the link.
so if you face the same problem like me and it is in window 8, so you know what i know.
run the orcad capture with right click , select it run as administrator.
then rerun the create netlist, you should be able to see the list of the componet in the placement box, i guess it is the same for any orcad PCB editor.

so cute windows 8, what the hell everytime i have problem with my excellent design software, the first thing i will think about is right click and click run as administrator...

haiz.

wish all the designer work the best!!!
