Globally Removing Author From Model

[Sparxs411]

Is anyone aware of a way to globally remove or change author names throughout the model? Can this be performed through project settings? I know the author can be changed on an individual basis (e.g., for each element created), but really interested in turn key solution for entire model.

Thanks!

Haven't seen anything in the User Interface that can do that however if you open the database with a DB tool you can search and replace the author column in t_object and t_diagram tables. For example with eap or eapx files open in MS Access.

If you don't have access to any DB tools then another way would be to run a jscript to go through the tree of objects to remove the author.

The only way is probably to run a SQL:

Code: [Select]

Repository.Execture("UPDATE t_object SET Author='Someone'")and the same for t_diagram (and maybe other tables?).
