Eliminating descriptions

Eliminating descriptions

Eliminating descriptions

(OP)
I have a parts library of about 1500 parts. the format of the design tables is being overhauled, and i need to get rid of the 'description' custom property in each configuration in each part file.

I have code to open and close all the files, but i can't get code to delete the config-specific property.

i tried searching, but couldn't find what i needed. maybe i was searching for the wrong thing, i don't know.

once i have a configuration selected, how do i delete a particular custom property?

RE: Eliminating descriptions

Milothicus,
Look at:
RetVal = Part.DeleteCustomInfo("Description")
