Parts/Assemblies Checking into Vault as "Standard Library Documents"

Parts/Assemblies Checking into Vault as "Standard Library Documents"

Parts/Assemblies Checking into Vault as "Standard Library Documents"

(OP)
I am checking in parts and assemblies (created by someone else) to the vault. But instead of showing up as parts and assemblies in the vault, they are showing up as file type: "Standard Library Document". I checked in some of my own files earlier today without incident. (I'm using SW 2005 SP 1.1)

Any ideas as to why this is happening, and how I can reverse it? I know that toolbox parts have an internal flag that can be toggled on and off- is this a similar situation?

Thanks,
Rebecca

Rebecca,
Are you checking them into the right Project folder on the inital check-in? Also, Right mouse click on the top assembly and you might be able to change the Project file and it's children there.

I'll do a little more research on this

Best,

Rebecca,
One more question, were these parts created from toolbox and renamed? If so, you have to down the toolbox property link.

Nothing was built from toolbox parts- they were all made from scratch.

Everything is going into the right project folder- in fact they are going into the same folder as my previous checkin- which I had no problems with.

Ahah! The folder that I was checking in from was mistakenly designated as a "Standard Library Document" folder. Mystery solved.
