Used when an xref, image, DWF, PDF, DGN, coordination model (NWC or NWD) external reference file is not found in its original path. The project name points to a section in the registry that can contain one or more search paths for each project name defined. Project names and their search directories are created from the Files tab of the Options dialog box.
Project names make it easier for users to manage these types of files when drawings are exchanged between customers, or if users have different drive mappings to the same location on a server.
If the file is not found at the original path, the project paths associated with the project name are searched. If the file is not found using the project paths, the AutoCAD search path is used.
