A simple report listing testpoints and attached nets

Here is a simple report that can be run from the report generator that will list your test points as added in the design editor using "Add Testpoint"(not the ones added in PREditor) and the names of the nets that they are attached to.

As seen within the report generator:

Date
Time
New Line
Text "REF X Y NET "
New Line
For Each Component (Testpoint) Sorted by Name
Component.Name
Component.Position X
Component.Position Y
For Each Pin
Pin.Net Name
Next
Next

Provides a report that looks like:

REF X Y NET

TP1 95.250 39.370 VCC
TP2 34.290 46.990 D0_P
TP3 40.640 46.355 D1_N
TP4 46.990 46.355 D2_N
TP5 61.595 43.180 D2_P

This could be useful for testpoint reports to create ATE jigs.
