Hi,
I need to import a lot of autocad drawings. All of these have 3 lines of description information (e.g. Description1, Description2, Description3). Now I would like to combine these three fields into one string / editbox.
I managed to get them in an editbox but just after that I manually alter the filecard. (e.g. space, remove space).
Since I won;t do that for all the drawings I \m looking for a method to combine these fields into one string so I can search them by using just one editbox on the searchcard (and not using the variabele control box).
I was thinking of using the API somehow to invoke a keystroke in an editbox during import to force an update of the card so the strings are combined (via Input Formula). However, I don't know howto.
Is there anyone who can help finding a solution for this.
Greet,
Kees
Finally I found the answer.
It was indeed the filename that needs to be stored in a runtime-variable
It seems that EPDM adds the file to the vault and than deselects it (or at least loses focus to the file) so one can't use the option "Selected File". Also, current file doesn't work. Therefore I stored the filename in the variable %FileName% and used that to generate a complete filepath+file. Now it writes the correct fields.
