Can document manager get to and change text in the sheet format.

Dan Webb Jun 5, 2018 10:57 AM

I need to change my custom property links in the title block in a bunch of my existing drawings.

I need to change $PRPSHEET:"Part_Number" to $PRPSHEET:"PartNo". These are in the sheet format when you right click on the drawing and choose "Edit Sheet"

Can this be done with document manager?

Thanks,

Dan

Pretty sure that's a negative. Sorry. There are quite a few threads about automatically refreshing sheet formats. I'd recommend hunting up one o' those.

Or... One thing that the document manager could do is modify the custom property "Part_Number" in the referenced documents to be linked to the custom property "PartNo"...

  That's a pretty good idea. I might go that route.

You can surely do that with a macro but each drawing has to be opened up (by macro) in order to do that change.

Here are few post/link to help you:
