Load component only...not assembly

(OP)
When i try to open a component, the assembly it was created in opens also (with all of its compenents). I thought i remembered there being an option to turn this off but cant find it. Anyone know where that option is? - Thanks.

RE: Load component only...not assembly

Tools->Options, System Options tab, External References category.  There should be a dropdown box with a view choices for "Load referenced documents".  Change this to "none".

That was it. For some reason the copy setting wizard did not translate this change from 07 to 08 for me. Thanks.
