When you import a pin assignment file in Quartus, pin group names are
not read.
Quartus assignes its own group names.

Does anyone know how to avoid this?

Example
I have the following line in the assignment file,
AF4,,DataCtrlIO[10],Bidir,3.3-V LVTTL,,,,,DEMOD,,PAD433,13,
the group name is DEMOD

This does not appear in the pin assignment editor.

Thanks

If I say Assignment, Pins, I get a table with column headings.
If I say File, Export, CVS from there I get something like this:

import this .csv file into the Quartus II software.

To,Direction,Location,Reserved,Group,I/O Bank,I/O Standard,CurrentStrength

bitstream,Input,,,,,3.3-V LVTTL,16mA

max_frame_usr[12],Input,,,max_frame_usr[13..0],,3.3-V LVTTL,16mA
....

Looks to me like you have different columns.
Does Altera still answer the phones?
