Hi,

So I've been working on an excel file to create "Default notes" that are used in different types of drawings (Sheet metal / Machined / Molded / Assemblies / etc...).

Obviously these notes are intended to make everything semi-automated and much simpler for the user, One of my notes reads as follows:

<S#-2> IDENTIFIED AS [ $PRPSHEET:"PartNo" REV $PRPSHEET:"Revision" ] IN APPROX. LOCATION SHOWN. IF NO LOCATION SHOWN, BAG & TAG OR LABEL W PART NO & REV.

Additionally there are more multi-line notes that can be added (loaded via excel ref. file).

The problem is that once the note loads into the drawing, only the first $PRPSHEET: reference works, all the others do not get "replaced" by the data.

Now, I originally thought that maybe I had a typo somewhere so I copied the note from excel and pasted it in solidworks and voila, everything worked beautifully and all the $PRPSHEET callouts got replaced by their corresponding data. So that tells me that there are no Typos in my note. . .

However, when I "auto-load" the note from Excel (via the custom-property tab builder) only the first $PRPSHEET callout gets replaced by its corresponding data, the remaining $PRPSHEET callouts do not.

Why?

How do I fix this?
