I just remembered I have a registered copy of Crapture v7.2 installed
for converting my ancient SDT designs into PSpice Schematics.
OLB is a library in binary format, so you can't see shit (other than
the symbol), not surprisingly :-(
I haven't used Crapture in years, but I'm sure that a .LIB statement
can be used for PSpice simulations.
Mark (qrk) would know how is it done.

Are you suggesting I know something about Crapture? Shame on you! I
wouldn't even know how to begin a PSpice sim under Capture. I'm still
using Schematics for PSpice and old DOS SDT for my designs. I only use
Capture to convert my SDT schematics for customers who are
unenlightened.
Holly poopus Jim, Capture v7 is ancient and really buggy. I tried to
use v7 many years ago. So many bugs that I never touched Capture again
for design work.
There is method to my madness. Remember when OrCAD bought MicroSim
and then required you to buy a Crapture license as well? That vintage
of Crapture wouldn't read my old SDT files, but v7 will. So OrCAD
_gave_ me copy of v7. PSpice can convert v7 OrCAD into PSpice
Schematics, so now you know why I keep a copy ;-)
I stopped paying the slugs anymore fees when they decided to not
support PSpice Schematics... like there was ever any _support_ in the
first place. Virtually every bug I reported was ignored, so I
developed work-a-rounds of my own.
PSpice v15.7 works fine on XP and I'll NEVER go to Vista (I bought a
bunch of legal copies of XP
