Mohamed,

  1. create a directory and put config file into it
  2. create Creo startup shortcut on your desktop and put directory path into Start in field
  3. when you doubleclick the shortcut, Creo starts and read your config.pro

Relations do not control configuration files.

Configuration files cannot be tied to assemblies using Creo software.

Configuration files affect all open files, so you can't have two assemblies and two configurations at the same time.

The way to automate this is to create custom software using Toolkit or JLink that manages a list of configurations and a matching list of assemblies or to create a custom Windchill tool that keeps configurations linked to assemblies.

What you ask for is unusual. Why do you want this?
