Sorry for three emails in a row; just trying to make myself clear.

I've now run a test where I had a master schematic which included two
subcircuits. Each cubcircuit consisted simply of a resistor, with each pin
connected to a generic-power (nets = vcc:1 and gnd:1).

Running this through gsch2pcb results in two resistors on the PCB, but
indeed the two power nets are not connected between the subcircuits. In the
Netlist dialog, again each subcircuit has its own Vcc / Gnd nets.

I'd welcome advice on how to merge nets in this situation - I'd rather not
run power lines to each sub circuit explicitly as this will significantly
clutter up my master schematic.

Many thanks,
James.
