Delete Toolbox Link in PDMWorks Vault

Okay, this was painful and I'm a noob admin so take it forwhat it's worth... I had a situation where a user created a designmodel in his toolbox folder, then created a drawing of that model(not in the toolbox folder) and checked the whole thing into thevault.

The end result was the vault listed the drawing model as a toolboxreference.

We relocated the model out of the toolbox folder and tried checkingit in again, as an admin, but received a "VAULT ERROR: 102" thatsaid there were no permissions to change the document properties.

Tried deleting the toolbox reference in the vault but there wasn'tan option to take ownership.

Tried using sldsetdocprop.exe to change the property state, whichmay have worked, but I still couldn't check the model in... same102 error.

Finally got someone at tech supt that helped me - here's what I hadto do:

1. Using the VaultAdmin Tool, lock the vault for an administratoronly. This will prevent other users from checking in while youchange the Allow Check in of standard documents setting.

- SIDE NOTE: The term, "standard documents" refers to toolboxfiles.

2. Using the VaultAdmin Tool, select "Allow check in of documents"- this will enable deleting standard items.

- This is found on the Standard Libraries tab in the "StandardLibrary revision management options" section.

3. From a PDMWorks Workgroup client, take ownership and delete thefile from the PDMWorks vault.

4. Using the VaultAdmin Tool, Disable check in of standarddocuments and reselect Display references in a separate project ifdesired.

5. Unlock the vault.

Hope this helps someone... took me all day to chase this one down.
