(OP)
Hi,

Our released document folder contains a separate folder for each drawing (about 60 folders).  The folder titles of each drawing have the current dwg rev level in the folder title.  

IE:
Rlsd_Drawings-00001_RevA
Rlsd_Drawings-00002_RevB
Rlsd_Drawings-00003_RevD

I know we could add each of the 60 folders to the 'Other folders' 'Search order' but as the folder titles change with drawing revs that would mean that the 'Search order' would have to be updated daily.  I'd like to be able to add only 'Rlsd_Drawings' to the 'Search order' and have Catia look in all of the sub folders of 'Rlsd_Drawings' without having to name them explicitly in the 'Search order'.  I thought changing the priority of 'Relative folder' to be after 'Other folders' would do this, but I can't seem to get it to work now.  We're using V5R19. Thanks in advance.

John
