    its most likely an Excel issue.
    Could honestly be caused by any number of issues really, including a server hiccup.

    Linked Excel documents can be a pain.

    Hmm, I’ll have to dig into this a bit

    Simple answer is no.

    More complicated answer is yes, but you’ll have to go into your spreadsheet that you’re using Quantity Link with and update the Space reference as Troy said.

    This is one of the many reasons I prefer to use Power Query over Quantity Link

    In a word, yes.

    As has been mentioned, all you’ll need to do is to change your source file and all the links will work.

    One thing you may want to learn for future use, is how to unlink the Excel workbook from Revu.

    Like I said Isaac, it only happens if you open a file from the DMS toolbar.
    I believe the character limit is 105, but don’t hold me to that.

    My best suggestion is to be cognizant of it and not create a bunch of unnecessary folders in the file path.

    I think the bigger problem is the part that we add at the beginning.
    It goes right back to the http:// and counts all of those as characters.

    There is no issue with the name length if I open the file through Windows File Explorer, only when we open it through the DMS portal.

    If we could reassign this to a relative reference, that would be great

    wow, that’s hardly any…. our next one is Easter, which is in April this year.

    We now get 11 ‘Statutory’ holidays a year here in BC, union workers usually get at least two more.

    well it is very expensive, but for your $800 US per person, you should get a lot.
    My wife was just looking at an HR conference here in Vancouver that was $1100 CAD for two days, but they have paid speakers, which Bluebeam does not do really.

    I for one would LOVE to see it go ahead, I’m just wondering how much Nemetscheck is pulling the strings though

    Try the Export to Word function.

    Might work better

    I do have to go back and look at that trick you showed on how to search for specific elevation callouts.
