Where can I find information about errors.

I'm sending the netlist to PADS layout and the ascii.err file pops up with a list of errors.

i.e.:
1.- "Part name already used R19
R19 RES0805@0805"

2.- "Can't find part decal item <SOT-23-5>
Can't find part decal item < SOT-23-5 >
Q1 SN74LVC1G04DBV@SOT-23-5"

3.- "*Part name not found U17
U17.5 J12.4 C2.2 U5.11 R25.2"

4.- "*Bad *CONNECTION* ascii data format, nets must contain more than one pin. Signal VPWTX
Mixing nets VPWRX U10 4 VPW_RX R16 2
U10.4 R16.2 U1.75"

5.-"*Bad *CONNECTION* ascii data format, nets must contain more than one pin. Signal J1850+"

6.- "*Part name not found Q1
R9.2 Q1.2 "

7.- "ATTRIBUTE VALUES
Error: Component Q1 not found"

These are the errors that are different.

I would like to find information on why those are errors and/or how to correct them.

Thanks in advance!

This looks like the output from reading a netlist into an existing board. Normally that's not the process, unless your old board is your "template".

If you read in the ECO file you don't see this type of report.

Are you trying to read new netlist information into an existing board? If so, do the ECO compare function, then read in the ECO file ('filename'.eco).

Been there... Good day.
