Aha, I will try this directly after lunch. Thank you Olin. I have been trying my best with Eagle. It's somewhat confusing, but I think I have been doing ok working through the tutorial and just drawing schematics. The big question will be whether or not I can then generate boards from them. I'm quite sure I'm missing something simple in the way the various power and ground nets are supposed to connect together on the board, but don't need to be physically connected with a net on the schematic.
