Moving Views in MEP 2008

[Eddy B]

Hello All,

I need to move a bunch of view drawings to a new location within the project folder structure. Unfortunately there have already been alot of sheet drawings referencing these drawings created. I tested one drawing using the following method:

1. In navigator, I created a new view folder.
2. Drag the existing view drawing to the new folder location.
3. right click on the file in it's new location and selected the re-path file option and clicked "OK" to the resulting re-path Que dialog box.

I then opened the sheet that referenced the relocated view, and to my dismay the relocated view drawing was not found... I was expecting that magically the sheet would find the relocated view...am I expecting too much or have I approached this situation the wrong way?

Any ideas would be helpful.

I'm using ACA, so it may be different. But, don't you have a repath project button at the bottom of the PN palette? The icon has a page and a paper clip. Try using that to update the entire project. I think what's happening is only the view is being repathed, but not the sheets that are referencing the view.
