Dear all, I am seeking advice once again. I have a Source Types where I wish to change the Repository as recorded in the Attachments tab in the Source Definition screen. There are many hundreds of them and I want to change them in one go, not one at a time. I cannot see a way of doing this this in TMG or TMG Utility. Have I missed something? Is there a way please? Thank you. Nigel Brown
I don't see a way in TMG or TMG-U to bulk-change the Repository as you want to do. However, here are a couple of thoughts that might be helpful: 1) If the only cases where that repository is used are those cases where you wish to change it, you could edit that repository in the Master Repository List to have its abbreviation, name, etc. read the way you wish. Even if that repository is used in other cases you don't wish the change to apply to, if those cases are fewer in number than the ones you want to change you could create a new repository for them and individually reassign them to the new repository. 2) If all the cases you wish to change are of a single source type (as implied by your post) but the repository is widely used for other source types you could edit that source type so its template no longer contains repository-related source elements such as [REPOSITORY] or [REPOSITORY MEMO]. Substitute specific text that defines the repository for the deleted elements, so that sources which are based on that type will use that specific text instead of looking up a repository from the Master Repository List. Of course this won't solve the problem if lots of other sources for which you don't wish to change the repository are based on that same source type. -----Original Message----- From: tmg-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:tmg-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Nigel Brown via Sent: Monday, July 20, 2015 10:30 AM To: TMG-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [TMG] Changing Repository Dear all, I am seeking advice once again.
