Rtext help again please...

Rtext help again please...

(OP)
ok...i need some help with diesel / rtext...
what i'm trying to do is get a page number using rtext...
ok...here's the catch...the page number is in the dwgname...

examples:
1111222222ir-01.dwg
111222222a-05.dwg
111222222b-14.dwg

(the 1's are the project number...sometimes 3 digits, sometimes

4...)
(the 2's are the code number...normally 6 digits)
(the ir, a, b, etc...are the revision status...starts at ir for

initial release then moves to a, b, c, etc...so it is sometimes 2

digits, and sometimes 1 digit)
(then the -XX is the page number, -01 is sht 1, -02 is sht 2, ... ,

-22 is sht 22, etc.)

so, in the drawing it is now shown like this:    SHT *2*
                                                  OF  6
oh, and on the page number if it is -03, i only want the 3, not the

0 in front...

CAN THIS BE DONE???

RE: Rtext help again please...
