[SILVERGUN]

Has anyone found an app for Android that will allow opening .sch files?

I didn't think of that.
Maybe someone has made a Windows 95 sim for droid

That seems to be an e-book training manual, not a display tool.

I thot the base tool for our .SCH files was Jschem by Heinz, now hosted at:
http://jschem.bplaced.net/

It is a Java application, so tends to run on anything smart, but I don't know how to do it on Android. Play Store has many leads but most seem to be trainers or editors, not Java runners.

Ive been using expesspch/sch since beta release, funny they just emailed wanting feedback on a board estimate I submitted, told 'em I was poor and Doug made me a turret version for ~ 1/5th the cost

Thanks for looking PRR

I'll email him and see what he says

Bernhard replied and said he is not aware of an app that will do it

Tried this one today with no luck after checking the website and seeing SCH files listed as viewable.
I uploaded a sample .sch schematic and got an error opening.

I went to expessPC, read through FAQ's nothing, left an email, was told they don't use viewers since the software allows you to view 
guessin it's an SOL thing

I can't find that.

expessSCH is not the only program that uses the file extension "sch". And the file formats are completely different, therefore incompatible.

> seeing SCH files listed as viewable.

I can't find that.

From this page- https://viewer.autodesk.com/

I realize this list is for the desktop viewer, but because they say "over 100 file types" on the Play store app description I assumed this was the list,,, cause it was the only file list I could find on their website

[sluckey]

Autodesk ain't talking about .sch files made by ExpressSCH program.

I might take you up on that.
This originally came to my attention when I was trying to help a forum member who was referencing one of tubenits .sch schematics.
I was out and about and have plenty of data to use for the download, just couldn't get it to open.

By the time I would have you do the conversion you would have already helped the guy.

anytime
I started a brief 10min look to the "future" replacement for my win 7 starter notebook.  Google  and Apple based OS are a NO for me, pickins where pretty slim after that
