I Copied my ACE_JIC_MENU.DAT file to a shared drive and mapped my Shematic Library to the Project Properties. All The Icons I made for symbols I created work good. The problem im having is when i try to save a circuit to the same icon menu it is saving it to my computer. I cant figure out how to get it to save to my shared drive like my symbols are. Is there a file somewhere that needs to be copied to the shared drive? if so, whats that file name?

You need to modify two lines in your wd.env file. Remove the * (asterisk) from the front of each of these lines and add your network path.
WD_INSCKTDLG,x:/some path/,to override starting path for INS CKT file selection dialog
This changes the starting path used for the Insert Saved Circuit dialog. If this is not set, Electrical defaults to the 'User' folder.
WD_USERCKTDIR,x:/some path/,default folder for "USER CKTS"
This sets the save location for the new user circuit block that is created when using the add 'New Circuit' wizard.
There is more info about the wd.env file here...

Where does the wd.env path get set
I hope this helps.
