renaming an assy with virtual components
renaming an assy with virtual components
(OP)
I can't figure out how to change the file name of an assembly that has virtual components in it without causing the references to become out-of-context. The virtual components are still looking for the original name of the assembly. Even save all as copy doesn't seem to work.
Anyone solve this before or know of a workaround?
Thanks,
Matt

You have to rename the components that are to remain in context. That way, you do not disturb the original assembly.
This is as it should be, I think.

I just tried (SW08-SP3.0) using both SW Explorer and then with a Windows folder and neither presented any problems. The assy opened up fine and no errors were showing.
Am I mis-interpreting your question?
