Relocating the cblcolor.dat to a network location.

Hi Autodesk Electrical users.

 

Is there a way to have AutoCAD electrical look for the cblcolor.dat from a network location rather than the folder C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD Electrical {version}\{release number}\{country code}\Support\.

 

I would like all my users to look at this one file then have to edit each computer file.

 

Thanks,

Alan

In the support file search path, OPTIONS > FILES, add the path to that network location where you plan to store the file. Then be sure to rename the original on everyone's computers and it will work.

To make this easier, you can export and import profiles with the saved paths once it works for one user, so every person can just import the file and get up and running.
