Can anyone give me some more information on the folder in the PDMWorks vault called "Toolbox References"?

I am in the process of implementing PDMWorks 2005 at my company and have done some testing of checking in and the like. I have checked in an assembly which is using Toolbox parts and the above folder was created. I had my PDMWorks options set to not allow check-in of toolbox parts and to view the references in a separate folder, so everything went as expected.

Now I have deleted the assembly and the component parts from the vault, but the Toolbox References folder is still there. I was expecting this folder to go away also, but it is still there. Is this the behavior others have experienced?

What exactly is this Toolbox References folder? Currently this is the only thing I can see in the Vault (everything else has been deleted). Any drawbacks to this?

Thanks,
Dave Gowans
