Quartus II + Modelsim from mentor graphics

[Altera_Forum]

Hello, 

 I am trying to use quartus II and modelsim from mentor graphics. Is this possible? I have put the route in EDA tools under modelsim choice (tools ---> options --->EDA tool options). But I always got    # ** Error: (vsim-3170) Could not find 'work.lab2_vlg_vec_tst'.  #   # Error loading design"  Does anybody know where the problem is? It looks like it always goes to altra-modelsim even if I have already made the choice.  Thanks in advance.  Attached error message:  ******************************************************************* Running quartus modelsim >> vsim -c -do lab2.do PID = 6100  Reading C:/altera/13.0/modelsim_ase/tcl/vsim/pref.tcl     # 10.1d    # do lab2.do   # ** Warning: (vlib-34) Library already exists at "work".  #   # Model Technology ModelSim ALTERA vlog 10.1d Compiler 2012.11 Nov 2 2012  # -- Compiling module Lab2  #   # Top level modules:  # Lab2  # Model Technology ModelSim ALTERA vlog 10.1d Compiler 2012.11 Nov 2 2012  # -- Compiling module Lab2_vlg_sample_tst  # -- Compiling module Lab2_vlg_check_tst  # -- Compiling module Lab2_vlg_vec_tst  #   # Top level modules:  # Lab2_vlg_vec_tst  # vsim -L cycloneii_ver -L altera_ver -L altera_mf_ver -L 220model_ver -L sgate -c -t 1ps -novopt work.lab2_vlg_vec_tst   # ** Error: (vsim-3170) Could not find 'work.lab2_vlg_vec_tst'.  #   # Error loading design

lab2_vlg_vec_tst should be your testbench name. 

do you define you testbench in the QII EDA setting?

My simulatin on alter-modelsim has run successfully --- I simply run it from .vwf file directly (there is a choice to run RTL simulation there). And I didn't define any testbench except a .vwf file.  

 Then, I changed the setting in EDA tool by using Modelsim from graphics mental. At the same time, when I run the simulation from .vwf file interface again, I choice Modelsim from mental graphics as my tool to run. However, the simulation still goes to the altera-modelsim. This problem also showed in the script attached.   Does anyone ever use the student version of modelsim for such a simulation? Can this version of Modelsim be used in such a scenario, combing with Quartus II for the simulation?  I am so confused here.

I've used standard versions of ModelSim for Altera designs. 

But, weather I'm using ModelSim-AE or plain ModelSim, I prefer to launch ModelSim on it's own and launch the simulation from there, I don't use NativeLink.
