creating memory of registers

Hi!

I'm new and I wanted to ask a question that is probably very simple.

I wanted to make a kind of a memory using 64 6-bit registers (it should work as a page table) and I wanted to put these registers in one 'box' by making a new symbol file. I just ut my registers on the diagram, generated pins and wanted to create a new symbol file, but this option was inactive and I couldn't.

What is my mistake? Is there a simplier way of making a memory?

I would like it that way, because my project was to choose the 'verse' of page table by multiplexing it from all the registers.

Greetings

Dominik

    Have you create a project for your design? If you don't create a project, the option will be greyed out.

    By the way, a simpler way to create memory is using the megawizard. Just create a memory from the internal memories like M4K, M9k, MRAM, or whatever ram you want depending on the device youa re using. You can specify the width and depth yourself. You can even make it sigle or dual port. There are many option for you to customize your memory.
