This is a problem I've never truly been able to figure out. I work for a company that has a large product line. Many times I come across a file (part, assembly, etc) that has a name that doesn't match what it should be. I want to rename it so that it will be easier to find in the future but it is already connected in so many different ways to other assemblies. Normally (what I have done) is open all of the assemblies that are currently using the part I want to rename, then rename the part so that it will reflect on the assemblies. Then I save everything and done. Is there a way to rename a part and have it reflect on every other file it affects without having to open them? I'm in wildfire 5.0 and if I do this and try to open up an assembly after having changed the name of a component in that assembly it will say "part is not in directory," or "file not found." Something along those lines, and then it will just close. So that is my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
