How can I run modelsim other than Active-HDL in DSP Builder?

Hello,

When I use DSPbuilder, I add the model "Testbench" and then run modelsim. It always pop up Active-HDL which installed in my computer. Of course, modelsim is also installed in my computer. How can I configurate the DSPBuilder to run modelsim other than Active-HDL?

Than you!

    DSP Builder is probably calling vsim based on whatever is on your PATH environment variable. try opening a command prompt and typing vsim. if Active-HDL pops up you'll need to edit Active-HDL out of your PATH environment variable (Start => Control Panel => System => Advanced => Environment Variables). check the User and System variables for the Aldec path and remove it. make sure the ModelSim path is present.
