Creating the View Setup (.cvs) File

You can attach clients to a vault by running a view setup file (.cvs), without running the View Setup wizard. You can create a .cvs file from any existing Enterprise PDM client.

You can launch the .cvs file silently using triggers, as described in Scripting Vault View Setup.

To create the .cvs file:

  1. Start the View Setup wizard using /a. From Windows Start, click Run, then type: 

    "C:\Program Files\SOLIDWORKS Enterprise PDM\ViewSetup.exe" /a

  2. Step through the View Setup wizard as if creating local views.

    Remove any existing vault views before selecting those views in the View Setup wizard.

    On the Finish screen, the available action is Save to file.

  3. Click Finish and specify a path for the view setup file.
  4. Click Close.
