# Re-Pointing a Calculation

How to re-point an element calculation from its original linked .EC6 file to a different file in the Element Manager.

When managing the linking relationships of various calculations, users should remember that although a particular Revit project may be linked to many `.EC6` files, each individual element calculation has a one-to-one relationship with a single linked file.

Throughout the natural evolution of a building design project, various factors may contribute to difficulty in accessing a particular linked `.EC6` file. This could include:

* Moving of `.EC6` files
* Renaming of `.EC6` files or project folders
* Adding or removing members of a project team

If at any point in a design project it becomes necessary to re-point a calculation from its original linked `.EC6` file to a different file, this can be done from the Element Manager window. Using the “Link This Calc to My `.EC6` File” button will result in the currently selected calculation being modified to launch in the user’s current linked `.EC6` file.

Note that this will ***NOT*** result in any direct transfer of design information from the prior `.EC6` file to the current `.EC6` file, and does ***NOT*** result in the calculation being removed from the prior `.EC6` file. It will simply allow the calculation to be opened, edited, and saved in a different `.EC6` file. The calculation will need to be relaunched from Revit and edited as desired in the new `.EC6` file. Design parameters that are managed exclusively from the ENERCALC SEL interface (for example, steel beam flange bracing, etc.) will be set to default values the first time the calculation is launched in its new file location.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.enercalc.com/efr-user-manual/setup-and-interface/linking-a-revit-project-to-ene/re-pointing-a-calculation2.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
