How to automatically check components against databases

How can I have Multisim automatically check the components in my design against
the databases when Multisim loads the design?
I know I can manually check the components by selecting <Tools><Update
components> but I would prefer to have this done automatically for me upon
loading my design to catch needed updates before I transfer the design to
Ultiboard.

Hi,


Multisim does no check the schematic parts against the database automatically; you have to update it manually. To be honest, I prefer the schematic to remain the same unless I tell it to update. 

 

Before you export the design to PCB, you should know which part you will buy and then change the footprint accordingly. If you export the design, then try to find parts to meet the default package from Multisim, this method is a lot harder.
