(OP)
Hello,
I would like to have my file name as a note or as attribute. How can I do that in NX 3?
Thank you
Vita

RE: file name
Now your filename is an attribute that can be refered to in your note as: <W@?DRAWING NUMBER>

If you are using TeamCenter Engineering I think the file name or description is called out as <W@DB_DESCRIPTION>
If you are using Native NX then you will have to assign an attribute for that file name that can be used in your note.

I did a quick search for the source code, but can't seem to find it. I'll have to check my archives at the house tonight... If I find it, I'll let you know... shouldn't be too hard to mod to your needs.

CAD should pay for itself, shouldn't it?
RE: file name
<W@SH_PART_NAME> will return the sheet part name (if your drawing file is named "wheel.prt" it will return "wheel")
<W@SH_MASTER_PART_NAME> will return the master model drawing sheet part name (if your drawing file is named "wheel.prt and the master model is named "wheel_12.prt" it will return "wheel_12")
Try it out to see if it will work in NX3.

RE: file name
If you want create a drawing in master model fashion with the models separate from the assembly then you would probably want to use a parts list.
If on the other hand you want to put on the face of the drawing the file name of the file that contains that drawing then perhaps one of the above mentioned attributes works in later versions of NX. Otherwise it may be possible to do it with Grip or Open User Function.

RE: file name
Guess the best solution is to push for updating to NX5.
