The only time you need to worry about linked files in your project is if you move it. If your central is linked into someone elses file, the solution is simple - make a copy of the new central file for the other user, then have then rename it to the old file name - no harm, no foul. You should already be working off of copies of centrals, not the original. That's a workflow we've put into place since we're teaching our users to clean their own files up before sharing them with other companies, to cut down on repititive tasks across the project.David Buttshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11883940638705490710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807546545325587932.post-74310227885322355692010-08-25T13:47:43.094-04:002010-08-25T13:47:43.094-04:00There's a compress central file option when yo...There's a compress central file option when you save to Central.<br />I would avoid creating a new centralfor stff like linkedfiles and other reasons.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02551109362251258764noreply@blogger.com
