      <description>&lt;P&gt;Ok, so I wanted to set our global rules and forms to a network location for all users to have access to. I changed the 'iLogic configuration' to be in a network location, but when I do a 'open containing folder' it still goes to my C: drive. Am I doing something wrong?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This may seem like a dumb question, but is the rule you click on to "Open Containing Folder" on the network drive? Do you have both the C: and the nework drive in the configuration?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You need to copy all the rules from the C: drive to the network location.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Brandon&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Ok,&amp;nbsp;sorry. I had my 'iLogic configuration' set to the network location and I removed the local path. The forms and rules were working but I just couldn't see the forms in my iLogic browser, so it was kind of strange. I checked on another user's computer, everything was set up the same but the forms were in their browser. So I did a simple restart and all is good and I can see the forms in the browser.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But one strange thing, you can see in the image below that the&amp;nbsp;configuration goes to the k: but the location on C: underneath is what it opened up when I clicked open containing folder. Do you know why this is, or if this is correct? Does it go to K: to get the info and then put it on my C: as a local copy, or something?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG title="ilogic form locations.png" alt="ilogic form locations.png" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/178756iA7D5554782DA9BD4/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;amp;px=-1" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Here it is with both rules in the browser. I didn't have the 'description' rule showing in the browser, but it still ran the rule. This stuff with global rules and forms is confusing but I need to know and understand how this all works, for the future.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG title="Untitled.png" alt="Untitled.png" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/178766iA16EE4EF2C7B1128/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;amp;px=-1" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I have tried to add each rule from K: and nothing&amp;nbsp;changes in&amp;nbsp;the external rules tab. So that means it's all good, right?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As for forms, are they always stored on my C:? Even global forms? And if I update one, will I have to update it seperately on each computer?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>No, global forms will be stored in the same place as the external rules. I don't understand why the containing folder still points to C:. You may need to reboot if this involves the registry or something. Brandon</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2904520"&gt;@JimmyDoe﻿&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;A little late, but I just saw this thread and wanted to point you to some information about sharing global forms. We work with shared global forms succesfully, by setting the Design Data path to a network drive. This is&amp;nbsp;the only way I know how to do this.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The Design Data path is set in one of two places:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;In the &lt;STRONG&gt;Project&lt;/STRONG&gt; file, under the&lt;STRONG&gt; Folder Options&lt;/STRONG&gt; settings&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;see this link for Project settings: &lt;A href="http://help.autodesk.com/view/INVNTOR/2015/ENU/?guid=GUID-B5AD27AB-F932-4F06-80D7-2537B26023D9" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://help.autodesk.com/view/INVNTOR/2015/ENU/?gu​id=GUID-B5AD27AB-F932-4F06-80D7-2537B26023D9&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Or in the &lt;STRONG&gt;Application Options&lt;/STRONG&gt; &amp;gt; &lt;STRONG&gt;File&lt;/STRONG&gt; tab under &lt;STRONG&gt;Design Data&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;see this link for Application Options settings: &lt;A href="http://help.autodesk.com/view/INVNTOR/2015/ENU/?guid=GUID-82D5ADF7-7D5A-4C71-AC55-D19AA31ABC37" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://help.autodesk.com/view/INVNTOR/2015/ENU/?gu​id=GUID-82D5ADF7-7D5A-4C71-AC55-D19AA31ABC37&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Keep in mind that if your project file has a path set other than 'Default', it will override the Applciation Options setting, so generally you set it on one place or the other, and typically only in the project file if you use multiple project files and they have design data that varies from project to project.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I hope this helps.&lt;BR /&gt;Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,&lt;BR /&gt;Curtis&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="http://inventortrenches.blogspot.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://inventortrenches.blogspot.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Since the .ipj settings override Application Options, maybe you can create a new folder "C:\Test Forms" where you create temporary copies of existing forms in "\Design Data" (where the production forms are). Once you're done, you can overwrite Design Data forms with Test Forms forms.</description>

      <description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/6881685"&gt;@SometimesInventorMakesMeAngry&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;Since the .ipj settings override Application Options, maybe you can create a new folder "C:\Test Forms" where you create temporary copies of existing forms in "\Design Data" (where the production forms are). Once you're done, you can overwrite Design Data forms with Test Forms forms.&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What I have done in the past, is just to setup my own "development.ipj" that uses a local Design Data location, then when things are ready to push out to production, the forms (and rules) were copied to a the shared network location.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I hope this helps.&lt;BR /&gt;Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,&lt;BR /&gt;Curtis&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="http://inventortrenches.blogspot.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://inventortrenches.blogspot.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Yes, thank you. I kind of implied it, but I realize now it's not very clear. I wish I could edit my post.</description>
