    Default Opening Worksets Dialogbox

    I would like to have Revit default all Worksets to YES under the Opened column anytime a project is opened, regardless of the user's previous setting.
    Anyone know where Revit keeps this info stored?

    Thanks!

    When you save as in the central (not sure about locals), you have a workset drop down in the options area of the save dialogue box that asks how you would like to handle worksets when the file is opened.

    Thanks for the reply Stimmo. I'm aware of the Options settings, I set ours to Specify in order to control what worksets to load to increase performance.
    What I want to do is have Revit automatically set all the Worksets to YES in the dialog box, regardless of what they previously selected.
    That way they user simply closes the ones they don't need.
    I thought Revit saved those settings somewhere in the Registry or in a file somewhere?

    Default Re: Opening Worksets Dialogbox

    SOLVED: Found out that this information is stored in the Revit.ini. It's a combination of the [Recent File List] and the [Recent Workset List] parameters in the ini.
    Replacing the Revit.ini (in both the Roaming and the UserDataCache folders) w/ one that has these parameters blank will reset the open dialog box back to Yes for all projects.
    This may be automated by assigning a Hotkey to overwrite the ini everytime Revit get's launched.
