This command sets both the project work folder and the data folder to
use as the default folders for your Carlson drawing and data files. The
\PROJECT folder typically contain the .DWG and .BAK files, while the
\DATA folder typically contains files such as coordinate (.CRD), Field
to Finish
code definition (.FLD), profile (.PRO) and centerline (.CL) files. This
routine also shows you the tree structure
of existing folders available on your computer. The first dialog
provides you with a choice of three for the Data Folder Setup. The
three options are Project Folder, Drawing Folder or Fixed Folder. You
will choose one.
In the Project Folders dialog you are
able to Add, Rename and Delete folders and sub-folders for your
project.
Drawing Folder: When this option is clicked, all of the
options below become grayed out. The drawings will automatically be
stored in the Current Project Folder, and the data files will
automatically will go into the same folder as the drawing.
Fixed Folder: With the Fixed Folder option, you will "Set" a folder for all of your data to be stored in. The \DATA folder is the default folder, but you can also create and set any folder you would like.
If you choose Create Directory, the program will prompt you for
the new
directory name. The Remove Directory
button allows you to delete directories that have no files inside.
After you have made your
choices, click OK.
