Create a library folder on your network, for example, UserLib. Go to your wd.env file (usually in your My Documents\Acade 2007\AeData\ folder). Edit this wd.env file with Wordpad or Notepad and look for a line that reads:
*WD_INSCOMPDLG,x:/some path/,to override starting path for INS SCHEM COMP browse button
Remove the asterisk and edit the path statement to read your network path to your UserLib.
When you Create new symbols or click Browse from the Insert Component menu, the default path will be UserLib. You can copy symbols from the JIC1, JIC125, IEC2, or IEC4 folder to UserLib and edit them to your choosing. Just be sure to keep the file name the same. Right-click on your Project name and select Properties. Add the network path to UserLib to your library list. Move it to the top. When you click to insert a standard symbol from AutoCAD Electrical, the one in your UserLib will get priority.
