I have an outdated drawing. I revised the solid part file and saved the new file as 'FILE'-Rev C.par from 'FILE'-Rev B.par. I am looking for a way to replace the views in the drawings of this part to show the new revision. I remember I have done it in SE ST before, but I dont remember how. Any help with be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Revision manager.

Or, the getto version, Edit - Links.

When you are revising your model, use revision manager, then you can do a 'where used' search to find the drawing and revise that at the same time.
Alternatively open the drawing in rev manager. This will show the link to the model so you can then revise both at the same time without a where used.
When revising models you will also need to consider the effect on your assemblies. If you do the part in isolation the assembly will still be looking for the old version of the part.
Ths is why many people don't bother with model revisions.
