i know this is an old post, but i have files like this and came across a 'problem'. when i check an assembly in with one of these files into EPDM, i get a message 'Outside of Enterprise PDM', which didn't matter until someone wanted to change settings so that files can't be checked into our vault unless all files were on the vault.

Do you know how i can fix this?

Hi,
I have created several hardwares using solidworks 2008 toolbox. Then used sldsetdocprop.exe to change these to solidworks part file. I have named these hardwares as different part nos and used in an assembly. Earlier I have used only one folder where I have stored all part, asm and hardware files. Now I need to distinguish these in three different folders like part, asm and hardware. While opening the asm, it asks about the location of parts and hardwares. I have provided the links for part nos. But for hardwares when it asks about location, it names the configuration instead the hardware no I gave while creating. e.g. The Toolbox component (B27.1-NA1-100) referenced by this assembly was not found. I want to completely remove the Toolbox reference from the part and identify it as a part. Please Help.

Regards
Subhasish
