Method to sort PDMWorks documents by vault status?
Method to sort PDMWorks documents by vault status?
(OP)
PDMWorks really needs a way to sort documents in it's explorer views by vault status. When you have 100, 200+ parts in a folder and you have to scroll through to see which ones have changed so you can reload the ones you didn't intend to, etc. it's very easy to miss them. This is a feature that's sorely missing. Would you help me and submit this as a feature enhancement request?

The only issue with that workaround is that if you miss a component you updated and intended to and then reload all then you wipe out your changes... unless you have backups on.

I don't know what version of Solidworks and PDMWorks you are using, but in 2007 there is a handy tool called my
PDMWorks clean up that I believe does what you are looking for. It will sort your files by newer, older, equal or in conflict. Alternately, you can choose to only list the files that are in a state that you choose, like newer for example.
To use it, it the PDMworks task pane choose the folder where you Solidworks files are located and RMB and select
My PDMWorks Cleanup.

My apologies. The MyPDMWorks Clean up tool will only sort
and allow you to delete files not update them.
