Hi all,
Because I couldn't wait for an out-of-the-box "synchronise all templates" functionality in ORD, I have put together an mvba that crudely will synchronise all or just edited in-place Template Drops and Linear Templates. It seems to work quite well so far. Thought i'd share as it seems a shame to keep it to myself...
What it does:
MVBA Options:
In order to avoid the "Are you sure" dialog that shows when syncing a Template that has been edited, the mvba needs to locate where you put the SendKeys.exe app. The location (path inc. trailing "\") of send keys can be defined by adding a variable named "SENDKEYS_PATH" to your workspace / configuration (I have also defined other locations we use locally)
If the variable is not defined, the macro will still work, but it will pause with the dialog and wait for user input.
Happy to get some feedback if anyone finds any issues with it...
ORD_SyncAllTemplates_mvba_v2.2.zip
has this been tested on Project Wise?
I was trying to run it, but couldn't get past this part:
Otherwise, nice work on building this very needed tool!
Thanks, it was created out of desperation to sync 100's of template drops on a major highway project.
Regards,
Mark
