I'm not sure if this should be in the Electrical forum or here in the Vault forum, but given that its probably something I'm doing wrong in Vault I'm posting here. I'm running ACADE 2014 and Vault Professional 2014 and today I did a massive rename on an electrical project inside of Vault. I did it throught Vault rename dialog boxes and the drawings took the rename just fine, but the .WDP file isn't updating? Any idea what's going on? Could it just be lagging because I did so many at once or did I miss a step when I renamed everything? I'm sure I can go in and MANUALLY update the WDP but that's a nightmare I really don't feel like dealing with right now! Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Thanks folks!

The message you are replying to is 4 years old. A lot has changed since then. Can you offer more specifics on exactly what workflow you followed?
Also, what versions of AcadE and Vault are you using?

Well, first, I'm happy you have got it solved and seem to be back up and running. I would agree that this is something that should not happen. I can't remember it happening to me, though I have had my share of difficulties with AcadE.... not the best of the AutoCAD family IMHO.
All of that said, I think it would be nearly impossible to say what went wrong. I'm afraid this may be one of those situations where someone would have to be watching the procedure to see where it went awry. I'm not insinuating user error, although we all do make mistakes, me more so than some. Were all of the files checked in? I think you said that they were.
