ranjet Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Using CA 7 When I save a plan I get this everytime: How can I avoid this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chief58 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 when you do a save as you will always get this notice unless you change the name of the file with something like a number or I do it as a date if I want to save my work, just use the save and not the save as, if you do use the save as just save and it will be in the same file and you won't get this message not the save as Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranjet Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 I'm not using the "save as". I using "save". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbuttery Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 that doesn't make sense ??? "save" should save the file under the same name "save as" pops a dbx and gives the chance to give a new name (and location) review the steps you are doing and if necessary post more screen captures Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chief58 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Lew I just tried it on a plan I was working on and it works on my end just like you and I have described it, not sure what is going on with their's unless they want to post the plan to take a look at for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 perhaps the wrong icon (blue not red) or the Hotkey is setup incorrectly ..........same thing if you use the File>Save menu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranjet Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 perhaps the wrong icon (blue not red) or the Hotkey is setup incorrectly ..........same thing if you use the File>Save menu? Not using the icon. I go to File>save. This is where it it saving to: C:\Users\ran1j_000\Documents\Chief Architect Premier X7 Data\Archives\Yemma Plan_9ff018fbe5143d8097e6af0d37e66cfa68a65f8f I just want to save the latest version, without the confirm dialog box.

lbuttery Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 9ff018fbe5143d8097e6af0d37e66cfa68a65f8f is an indication you are saving to archive file or something else start from beginning and descible all steps being taken screen captures would be best Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 you have opened an Archive Copy of the plan as Lew and Graeme said , So do a Save As to you Normal Yemma Project Folder as Yemma Plan.plan and it then should let you save as normal . I don't think CA will allow you to overwrite an Archive File , and SOP should be to do a Save As immediately if you need to Open an Archive File at anytime so you still have the Archive unchanged if you need it again.
