locate a component of an assembly
(OP)
I have an assembly and I want to find out the exact location of a component. Is there a quick way to get this? I am not using Pro/Intralink. The assembly components are in diffrent folders.
Thanks!

Go to the model tree and click on binoculars. On the search panel find the Model Name and set the value. Click on the ADD button and then select the Filter tree. Proe Will update the model tree and will give the right locations of your component.

I am using a Pro/E wildfire.

Search for the model name through windows find files. If the part is an instance, than do a replace command, this will tell you the generic name (top one), then do a search for the generic name on your hard drive.

you could also do a save and use an advanced search on windows specifying .prt.* name and time range of last modification.

DISPLAY_FULL_OBJECT_PATH to "YES".
Now when you open a file, the full directory path is shown on the ProE window. For assemblies, select INFO > MODEL and SCREEN (or text file). Now the full directories of each part are shown.

Please let me know about pro/e on xp.
An assembly that opens in 4 minutes with search paths on nt opens in 2 hours on xp.
