I thought I'd play around with Vault again today and with WFS to see if I could get either to work for me and here is what I found:
Vault:
1. Hardly any documentation.
2. Nothing intuitive.
3. Cannot prevent duplicate file names.
4. No ability to seemlessly transfer files between Vault and WFS, retain file info/relationships and prevent Vault ID number from becoming part of the WFS file name.
5. No ability to work between different Vaults.
WFS:
1. No ability to assign file location paths.
2. No ability to rename parts and update this info where the part is used.
3. Upon relocating a file to another location/directory - no ability to search for the part when loading an assembly.
I'm wondering again if we can bring back Repository?
V10 is looking better and better all the time and so is a license of Solidworks.
Very dissappointed,
Bill
ps: Ralf, sorry to be bleating again, but someone's got to do it :wink:
