    Default Copying tool palates to workstations from a Network tool catalog

    Does anyone know how to add shared tool palates to individual workstations from a centrally located tool catalog without moving the shared palate out of the tool catalog using the i-drop symbol in ADT 2004?
    I was able to create the Tool catalog using the Design Center and add my local styles to it but everytime I try to idrop the new palate to a workstation, it moves it from the catalog instead of copying it?
    Any help would be appreciated - thanks!

    I don't use ADT, but I'll assume that it works similary to ACAD in this case. Just add the network path to the Tool Palette section in OPTIONS. This should let you draw information from all listed locations. (I'm pretty sure this works for 2004...been a while since I used that version.)

    Tried that - still couldn't find it. Apparantly the only way I read so far is to i-drop it to the local tool palate but it still moves the tools out of the network catalog.
    Thanks though.
