How to convert an assembly (iam) into several subassemblys (iam)?

Hi, I have a problem, and I will be glad for your help.

 

In general when I am starting my dessigns I start dropping all the parts (IPT) in the same Assembly (.IAM), but when the dessign is more advanced I need to make subassemblies with some of the parts.. Is there a way to do this?

 

In general I design protoypes, so is very dificult to organize the folders in advance.

 

For example

 

1°  All the parts in the same IAM

 

IAM-1

---------IPT 1

---------IPT 2

---------IPT 3

---------IPT 4

 

2° Re-Arrenge into this

 

IAM-1

-------IAM -2 (A new IAM containing some IPT parts)

         ---------IPT 1

         ---------IPT 2

---------IPT 3

---------IPT 4

 

 

Thanks in advance for your help

Just select IPT 1 & IPT 2, right click and select "Demote".
