Greetings all, I appologies if this question has already been posted. I found some that are similar but doesn't quite cover all of what I'm tryihng to accomplish. First a bit of information: I have a 5 story office complex that I'm curently working on modeling out the shell. There are about 12 tenants in the building and I would like to be able to create a master model that I can have our commercial management and leasing departments have access to when needed. This will be my first attempt at a project of this size and type, and it will also be the first time I will reference another revit file. So now to the questions: What tips, issues and/or problems should I be aware of? Is it just as simple as to create a file and reference the shell, and each separate tenant files, to create one master file? Is there a way to create a master file with a similar command like BIND in autocad, this is so I can keep a history of the entire building from change to change? Thanks, Michael

You can copy/ monitor the files together and then track changes that way. I dont know if the track changes works with linked files. There is a good post from brettgoodchild on this post http://www.revitcity.com/forums.php?action=viewthread&thread_id=10146 You might want to do some more searches/ research on copy monitor. HTH Nick

You can even set up a master project directory with all of the drawings of the linked files listed (name - number ...). You would still have to access the individual files to see the drawings. You could sort those drawings by project/name / number.
