Newbie...Need to add a connector with 120 pin (double row 2X60), .039 pitch, .062 thickness

All

I need to design a PCB to receive this add on card (http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=1406&dDocName=en543132).  I need to connect to the PIC Tail plus connector.  This goes into the development board (http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=1406&dDocName=en024858)provided by microchip at J3 (black header, part number MEC1-160-02-F-D-EM2 from samtec)

Another option is to design a PCB to connect at J9 (120 pin (dual row 2 x 60), .039 pitch, .062 thickness) of the above development board. 

However there is no connectors available in Multisim to do this.  How can I do it.  I am pretty new to Multisim.  One more note, we can't handle surface mount and hence looking for through hole.

Unfortunately I think you are stuck with the surface mount part.

Have you thought about using an assembly surface to populate your board?  I'm pretty sure they'll do just a portion of it for you if the expense is an issue.

Hello

This is part of a design and manufacturing class I am doing at a county college. I am required to designed and manufacture a PCB and the college can't handle surface mount. 

Are you suggesting to give it outside and get it done?  That is not an option for reasone explained above.

Any suggestions
