With the Connect Edition, how do customize the directory structure that is created when I create a new Workset? I can't find any help on this. With V8i, we have several project template structures setup that we select when creating a new project base on the type of job...Primarily, some complex structures for complex projects and simple structures for simple jobs.

What are status on this issue? Is it possible to create folders with ORD update 2?

Has there been any development with this workflow?
I've only started playing with this, but you may be able to use the _USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDSUBDIRS configuration variable. In the WorkSpaceSetup.cfg these come commented out as default:
#_USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDSUBDIRS = Cell;Data;Seed;Symb;Macros;Sheet Borders;Superelevation;Template Library #_USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDSUBDIRS > Dgnlib;Dgnlib/GUI;Dgnlib/Render;Dgnlib/DrawComp;Dgnlib/Links;Dgnlib/ClashDetection;Dgnlib/Printing #_USTN_WORKSETSTANDARDSUBDIRS > Dgnlib/Civil Cells;Dgnlib/Feature Definitions;Dgnlib/Sheet Seeds;Dgnlib/Graphical Filters
That doesn't solve the problem of files, but it should generate your directory structure.
Files seem to be a bit more...unpredictable. There is the concept of the Workset Template, but I find more posts about how it doesn't seem to work as expected, than how it does. I did a quick search of the Project Administration Forum and didn't find much helpful discussion with easy fixes.

Thanks, Mary. I will look into these variables and see if we get something close.
