The following table lists the effects of saving an assembly in various ways.
For this example, assume that these are the active documents:
| Assembly document: |
c:\test\Assem1
|
| Referenced part documents: |
c:\test\PartA
c:\test\PartB (changed since the last save)
|
| |
Saved files
|
Active assembly after saving
|
Referenced File Locations
|
|---|
| Save |
c:\test\Assem1
c:\test\PartB
|
c:\test\Assem1 |
c:\test\PartA
c:\test\PartB
|
| Save As c:\final\Assem2
|
c:\final\Assem2
c:\test\PartB
|
c:\final\Assem2
|
c:\test\PartA
c:\test\PartB
You can save the references with new names, by selecting Include all referenced components and adding a prefix or suffix to the component name. If you change the names, the changes you make to PartB appear only in the newly named reference part.
|
| Save as copy and continue c:\final\Assem2
|
c:\final\Assem2
c:\test\PartB
|
c:\test\Assem1
|
c:\test\PartA
c:\test\PartB
You can save the references with new names, by selecting Include all referenced components and adding a prefix or suffix to the component name. If you change the names, the changes you make to PartB appear only in the newly named reference part.
|
| Save as copy and open c:\final\Assem2
|
c:\final\Assem2
c:\test\PartB
|
c:\final\Assem2 is active, and c:\test\Assem1
remains open |
c:\test\PartA
c:\test\PartB
You can save the references with new names, by selecting Include all referenced components and adding a prefix or suffix to the component name. If you change the names, the changes you make to PartB appear only in the newly named reference part.

| Find References, then Copy files to c:\final
|
c:\final\PartA
c:\final\PartB
|
c:\test\Assem1
|
c:\test\PartA
c:\test\PartB
You can save the references with new names, by selecting Include all referenced components and adding a prefix or suffix to the component name. If you change the names, the changes you make to PartB appear only in the newly named reference part.
