Prompting "Save" for Read Only Docs
Prompting "Save" for Read Only Docs
(OP)
I did a search on the forum but no luck.
Is there a setting somewhere so that I can change so SW does not prompt me to save changes on documents that are open as "Read Only"?
Thanks BB

I already have the Tools\Options\System Options\Exteral References\"Do not prompt to save read-only referenced documents (discard changes)" done. I think my issue may be coming from PDM Works Enterprise.
