Is it necessary to launch Modelsim from Quartus II Tools menu every time?

Hello

I am using ModelSim-Altera as RTL simulator.

And I am using NattoiveLink for Megafunction simulation.

I have to launch simulation from menu of Tools > RTL simulation on Quartus II so far.

Before simulation again, I have to Quit ModelSim every time also.

If I can launch from ModelSim menu directly, it would be more convenient.

Does anybody have a good idea?

My environment is following

Quartus II 64-bit Version 13.0

ModelSim ALTERA STARTER EDITION 10.0d

Windows 7

Thank you

Best Regards

    I think you can since you can launch from your application. "Start menu" > Altera > ....

    And in ModelSim, open the Modelsim project (Search for .prj in your project).

    or simply run the script files in the \simulation\project directory. The script files are .do files

    in the modelsim command window, type:

    do run_my_sim.do

    Dear mmTsuchi and Tricky

    Thank you for your advice.

    I have been able to use .DO file now.

    Thank you so much.

    And I'm sorry my late reply.
