Need File name In Design Table
Need File name In Design Table
(OP)
I am trying to automate the creation of the text string
"SW_Mass@@<CONFIG NAME>@<FILE NAME>.SLDPRT"
in a design table so that it can be mapper to a costom property so that it will shop up on the drawings after it is massaged.....
Using concatenate and a second sheet in the design table I can build it... except I have to fudge the file name....
can I access the sytem variable directly through the spreadsheet?
SW-File_Name
????
I am also using this to list the materials in a configuration specific manner on the drawings...
before a change in the part would update the drawing if the config was changed....

I am not looking to drive the file name from the design table... but to input it into a cell so i can parse it...
I can link to it in a drawing but not in a part....
Is there some clever way to make excel resolve a system variable...
maybe a VB line or 2...
