Question

Windchill support for family table accelerator files

We are using Release 9.1 of Windchill. Can anyone tell me if you can configure Windchill to retrieve accelerator files when a family table instance is retrieved? We use a fair number of family tables for our hardware library and some programs use family tables in their assemblies. I know the function of accelerator files, but they're useless if they are not retrieved from commonspace when you add a family table instance to your workspace. My presumption is that it's doable, but I just don't know all the tweaks for Windchill. If I can at least confirm to our EPDM folks that it can be done, I can push them to do it.

Thanks,
