I have several files in an assembly that have the file location listed as
"NewWorkGroup1" listed as the file location. I can go through all these
one-by-one and change them to the correct loctaion, but is there anyway to
chose all of them and do it one time? Sure would be a time saver.

Yeah ... just shift/pick them all and change the location. I usually set the
project they will go to as the current project before I go to DA. You can do
the same thing with other stuff that's the same as well; like deleting the
file names from the Part Number column! ... Had to get that in again.

Larry,
That lets me chose all the files and I can pick the path. Problem is when I
change the file location from "NewWorkGroup1" to "Standard Parts", DA tells
me that the files already exist. I can exit DA and delete the file, then
restart DA and open the assembly. DA then wants me to resolve the link of
the file I just deleted.
Did I loose you?
I don't understand why the file location is listed as "WorkGroup1" and DA
will not let me just change it. DA is trying to relocate the file.

I found the problem... For some reason, there was a WorkGroup1 in my
WorkGroup path. I deleted it out of my project and the file location shows
correctly in DA.
Thanks for the tip Larry.

The way I do it is to have descriptive names for the project files so I know
where I'm coping the files to; I've seen that NewWorkgroup thingy once or
twice but I never copied any files to it, I copied them to the project I
wanted them to go to.
If you have standard parts with the same file name already in that directory
I would expect such an error. You may need to copy the Standard Part files
to a temp project, delete the existing files with the same name, then copy
the Standard Parts to the directory they go in.

If you have standard parts with the same file name already in that directory
I would expect such an error. You may need to copy the Standard Part files
to a temp project, delete the existing files with the same name, then copy
the Standard Parts to the directory they go in.
