Protecting Files (Without a PDM)

Hello All,

 

Is there any way of protecting parts or assemblies without using a PDM in Creo (3)

The relatively small company I work for doesn't have PDM (yet) and i would like a way of protecting parts and assemblies from accidental change.

With other Cad systems its normally possible to go into file manager the just mark the files as read only. I realise this is still open to deliberate abuse and relies on the user actually doing this. This method doesn't seem to work because of the way Creo creates multiple copies of the same file, so when it open the file it saves a new one rather than changing the exisiting file.

I know I could always go and find the version before they were changed, but this relies on someone noticing the change and then working out when the parts were changed.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Gavin
