How do I create a macro that will, when run, fill out certain document properties for a part, we're using the same document properties for all our title blocks; It would be good to have a macro that we can run every time we create a part, that will automatically fill out those properties. I've tried building one my self, but it stops responding as soon as I go into document properties.

Thanks in advance.

If all parts have common information, why not simply add that information, as text, to the title block.

or ...

If all parts have common information, why not just save a part template with the common properties already populated.

Thanks tick, that macro works great.

limey, we don't need so much to have the exact same information, as we need a lot of the properties to ahve the same values, which link to other values etc. thanks though
