Method to change group of central files to "LastViewed" when opening?

I am guessing there is a node(s) that can allow me a way to change the default behavior of opening a central file from something like “Specify” to “LastViewed”?
I am trying to come up with a method to change this every week when we get new models from our Subs. PITA when they all send it to us differently!

Hi @Dave_Vaughn,

It’s possible with the Document SaveAs node.

Nice FInd!
I found this also,

Would it be wise to try “kill 2 tasks with one graph”? I want to also make all the non-workshared files and make them Centrals too…

  1. Get all *.rvt files in a directory.
  2. Process all the Non-workshared files save into Central file fomat in current folder.
  3. Process all current Central files to all be saved with default open behavior to LastViewed.
  4. Provide option for user to save all to a different location.

It looks like the latest package you have shown above supports all those things I want to do!
