Sounds like you are operating in a vacuum. First turn off your caps lock key. Shouting does not help.
Next you need to get some training from your reseller.
If you do not have access to a reseller, then explore the help files and the tutorial.

After you insert your drawing views, activate one, and then Insert>Model Items>Dimensions. This should make all your specified (or construction) dims appear in your model, with all associated dimensions. Then you have to spend some time deleting the dims you don't want. "The attempt and not the deed confounds us."
 
No Snowcrahs. I work very well whit SolidWorks. But I want to improve my habilities with your tips. Also, what i said about the diameter symbos was just a example.

I like to thank you MadMango. That kind of tips are very useful.

Are you filling in your title blocks with text or are you using properties from the model?

Go to web site Look at Macros/Examples see example 7

Also look in the left column under Custom Properties.
Good luck
