placing and replacing files

When using IV.
Why don't we get to replace files from the vault?
Why can't I place multiple files from the vault?
This makes for a painfull & sloppy workflow!

Will these simple things be in the 2010 release?

Hello,
When you are in an assembly in Inventor and select the Replace command, the
Inventor dialog box initially comes up. There are two buttons in the lower
left corner, and these allow you to toggle over to the Open/Place from Vault
dialog box. You can browse the Vault, use a pre-defined shortcut, saved
search, or run a basic/advanced search for files. As for placing multiple
files, I will forward this request on to Product Design.

The replace command you speak of...Is that for 2009?

We are still using 2008. We will install 2009 at some point. (prob when sp1 or 2 comes out)

I can place multiple files, just not from vault! This is bad work flow. (For us)

Thanks for your help Brian...Appreciated!

I agree that the multi-select from Vault would be helpful. I believe you could get the Vault multi-select functionality in the future releases.
