Does any body know how to change the descriptor?

I'm currently working on Mastercam X3 and was just wondering how to change the file descriptor. You know the one you can preview before opening a another mastercam file. Thanks in advance guys...

I could only find one way. In settings/configuration/files (in the menu), check box "Prompt for Fle Descriptor when saving". Then you'd have to do a "Save As", and you get a chance to edit the descriptor there. There must be a better way!

So Drop in "Emastercam" forums and search then ask there?

How is doing a Save As any harder than doing a Save? For those times when you want to change the descriptor, you do a Save As and change the description. I dont think you want it asking you to change the file description every time you do a regular Save. That would drive you nuts. This makes it an specific, intentional process.
