In the VIA version I was able to set a variable in the .env to look on the server for the .dat files, I don't see how to do that in the AcadE version.

    To point to a new location for
the plc.dat files, you need to add a path to the AutoCAD support paths.  I
do not recall there ever being a path in the env file for this, it has always
been accomplished through the general AutoCAD support paths.  If you remove
the files from your local system, add their location as an AutoCAD support path,
and you should be ready to go.  To verify that the program is finding the
information in the correct location, when you go to insert your first PLC card,
look in the upper right hand corner of the main selection dialog.  It will
give you the location it is finding the main PLC.DAT file.  I hope this
helps.

Jared, I am sorry, you are correct.
By the way, good to see you are still in tech support, we have spoken a few times in the past.
