One of the things I see many Inventor users struggle with is renaming their Inventor files from a descriptive name to a "Part Number". This typically breaks the links with any referencing files, and requires all of the files to be "Resolved" in any place they have been used.
Autodesk Vault offers a much better solution that allows batch renaming of files, and it even repairs links in files that would otherwise be broken. Check out this ScreenCast video for an example:
