Being an Application Specialist for the Mechanical Division of Autodesk software, you must know and learn Vault. Lately I’ve been implementing Vault and I’ve come to an interesting challenge. Here is the scenario of Company “A”, most of there employee had multiples Hard Drive and to challenge me they didn’t have the same letter drive for them to set up the working folder. I could not set the working folder to a specific lettered drive because not every body had the same one. A co-worker mentioned to me in the pass that he read something about it on the discussion group. I did a search on the subject and of course the answer was there, “Environment variables”. I created a variable on every users computer called Vault and specify the desired location, specified by the user.
Once the variable was created on all the users, I’ve log as an administrator of the vault and set the working folder to %Vault%, as seen below.
Multiple working Folder, it can be done.
