My comments on Solution Id: S-024269 See Below...
Yes, but...
'Tools > Options > External references > Update componentnames when documents are replaced' deselected makes it hard to finda file if your looking for the files name. One solution would be tohave "File Name" display an option in the Tree Display selections (Show component names, Show Component Descriptions, etc ).
I noticed the file name is displayed, but not when tree display -show component descriptions is selected, and there is a componentdescription.

Answer: When using from-to lists to create a route, the componentnames are defined in the from-to list and the wires are routed tocomponents using those names. If the component names change, thewire connection is lost. If this option is enabled and an existingelectrical assembly is opened, the component names used in theFeatureManager will update to use the file name rather than thename specified in the from-to list and hence the wire connection islost. This name can be found by right mouse clicking on a componentin the route sub-assembly and selecting 'Properties'. See alsosolutions S-022508 and S-020277.
