    From Place Component window Catalog Type showing wrong list for Plumbing.

    Product(s): OpenBuildings Designer
    Version(s): CONNECT Edition
    Area: Plumbing Design
    Subarea:

    Plumbing Catalog

    Background

    For Plumbing Equipment the Manufacturer Catalog shows the wrong list.



    This problem appears due to the catalog XML file where Database Filename was entered wrongly.


    Steps to Accomplish 

    Step-1,

    Go to this location, (for our case we have used DataSet_NM)

    C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenBuildings CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Datasets\Dataset_NM\DataGroupCatalogs\Plumbing_Lib

    And open this with Notepad ++.



    Step-2,

    You will find that here the in the XML file Database Filename is associated with Vic Data Files.mdb instead of Vic Data Files_si.mdb.



    Step-3,

    Enter the corrected Database Filename,



    Then save the file. Then the correct Manufacturer Catalog list will be shown in OBD
