Vault from within Inventor error

[Anonymous]

Hi, I am trying to get all designs created within Vault for drawing managment purposes. When I open the from the Vault icon in Inventor I get this error "The active project's workspace is not mapped to a path in the Vault. In order to proceed the workspace must be mapped". When I just use the "Open folder" icon it opens to within the Vault absolutely fine. My project set up is pointing towards my Vault folder on my C drive see pic so I am unsure as to what is wrong. I have tried the help files to no avail. ANy ideas please.

Gav,

When you use the Open in the attach picture, it is opening files that is on
your local workspace not files from the Vault.
To correct this, close all open files in Inventor.
Select Map Folders from the File\Vault menu.
Map the project workspace folders to the appropriate folders in the Vault.
Then you should be able to perform a Open From Vault.

Yes that does it fine. I had to create a new "top folder" and drop the other directory's in there first before I could map it which was were I was getting stuck I think. Thanks a lot.

To re-open this thread, I am getting the same error message.. and same problem. but I am using Vault/Inventor 2012 and can see no file>vault>map folder option on either program.
