Yes Joy, I tried that...still it goes into Office documents category; weird!
Just to be certain, you did set the Workflow Properties to indicate which categories go with which workflows, right?
Also, I find that categories are not very useful. The main reason is that if a file is mis-categorized, you cannot correct the problem without deleting the file and re-adding it. If you simply put the conditions directly in the workflow properties, when a mistake happens that causes a file to end up in the wrong workflow, you can move the file to the correct workflow by using a workflow link.
I agree with Jim Sculley It was recommended by our VAR to stay away from categories for the vary reason he pointed out.

Try this - (temporary) Change the conditions on the ECO and Office Documents categories to not allow ANY documents - !=%.%
Hi Joy,
Yes, that does make the CAD files go into the respective category, i deleted all other conditions in other categories for this behavior and added the suggested condition!
Can i try now adding those conditions back to check whether it works for all files?
Sure - try deleting all the conditions on the other categories and adding the !=%.sld% first, followed by other conditions - also, be careful that AND's and OR's are properly defined.
It's going into the Office Documents category because Holder.sldprt matches the !%\ECO-%.xls% condition. You should move that to an AND condition.
Hello Rashesh, After you modified the Category, did you delete the file and re-add it? Joy
