change custom properties without opening file?

Take a look at the SolidWorks Task Scheduler to assign the same Custom Property value to multiple files.

Take a look at SolidWorks Explorer to add/change Custom Properties on multiple files, one at a time.

Take a look at the SolidWorks Document Manager API in the API help. You can use it to change custom properties in SolidWorks files without having to open them in SolidWorks.

Thanks all.

Task scheduler assign the same propriety value to many files. It's useful, but I would like to do like this:

create a file .csv from excel with all properties to create/change and a .exe file to make it.

Here's an example:

.csv file:

filename;Mass;Material;PartNumber;Invoice;Description;Date

test.sldprt;"SW-Mass";"SW-Material";010256;552585;Plate 3/8"x1250x2500;10/04/2010

test2.sldprt;"SW-Mass";"SW-Material";010269;552532;Hex head cap screw M8x50;10/02/2010

A .exe file will find the specified solidworks files in your directory and sub-directories and apply these properties to custom tab.

Hi, sorry for my delay.

yes, I would like to change the properties of sw files.

I found this excel file in http://www.markkulehtola.net/wb/pages/solidworks/swxx-tools/older-stuff/swie.php

Thanks Markku. Great job.

Thanks for all.
