RE: [SS10/Connect/ORD] shifting from network/VPN to Sharepoint/OneDrive?
Marc Thomas
I recently saw SharePoint being used in a very well organized way to store project data by synchronising it locally (behaviour similar to OneDrive, they have many similarities). On the whole it works very well except when multi user access is required…

RE: msconfig.cfg/PCF files for OneDrive
Marc Thomas

Greetings, I will be assisting a startup design firm nearby to get up and running with MicroStaion/ProjectWise (PW) - most likely only one license of each. Their filestorage is all in Microsoft OneDrive, a component of Sharepoint. For any projects…

RE: working with # configurations
Marc Thomas

Kevin van Haaren
We set the variable MS_PERSONALDGNLIB in our configuration. I'm currently testing for myself to keep this file in my OneDrive folder and it seems to work for me. I also set MS_PERSONALDGNLIBSEED. Still in testing but intent is to allow users to have…

RE: [V8i] Preferences on a network drive?
John Frampton
Hi Mary, We have given up on trying to back these types of files up. The thought is that people can get them from back up if they go corrupt, but when was it backed up and when did it go corrupt? Easier to just rebuild them from the seed starting point…

RE: [CONNECT] What are the advantages of project-based worksets?
Marc Thomas
Hi Mary, From your description above it sounds like having one WorkSet per client would be a good way to go for the time being. The file branding would only arise if someone opened a file from a different WorkSpace, which seems less likely to occur…

Multiple workspaces and remote users
Michael Schultz
I'll be following the Microsoft OneDrive conversation closely as it may yield some potential answers, but I wanted to ask a parallel question here without muddying the waters there. DOTs will typically provide localization via custom workspaces with…
