Stop me overwriting old releases!
Stop me overwriting old releases!
(OP)
Morning all-
If I'm updating a drawing (V5 R18) and give it a new release number, sometimes I'll go to "save as" (to upissue the title) and accidentally click save instead. Bit of a pain. I know it's a long shot, but is there any way of adding a check message to confirm, or do I just need to be better at my job? Because that sounds like no fun.
We're not using any kind of PDM here, it's a pretty small business- so it's all done manually.
Cheers
Simon

RE: Stop me overwriting old releases!
in our case it's a mandatory not to edit manually revisions, part numbers in drawing. our title block linked to part properties. just edit part properties, go back to drawing and hit update title block.

When you are working without PDM/PLM is good to have as many automation tools (macros to avoid mistakes or speed up work) you can get. Anyway, be aware of http://www.eng-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=1318
