Hi,
So we decided to make change our part name. Is there any utilities without ABD SS6 that I can use to quickly update the name change? I'm aware of the verify family/part tool. But with the amount of changes and the number of models involved, it can get quite tedious.
Best regards,
Tuan Le
You can make the changes in the corresponding XML file.
Hi Tuan,
Kindly follow this workflow to make the changes in the excel file and update from the excel file. Firstly do an excel export from the schedules and then follow the workflow shown in the video. This is in CONNECT.

Ranit
Hi Tathagata,
I fail to see how changing the the part definition will update the existing elements. From my experience, AECOSim doesn't work that way.
Thanks Ranit, VBA was my back up plan, I was just hoping that there's already a tool for it.
Note that in the video the name change can be applied to an entire column using Excel's fill series tools.
The process shown applies to any attached references. If the columns used had been in say three separate references, the schedule would see all of them, applying the modifications from Excel would automatically open and update each reference file (as long as it was not locked by another user) applying the changes to each one.
