Hello All,
I am new to this forum and very new to writing macros. I am in great need of help because I am stuck so any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
I am going through and deleting a revision and adding a revision block to all drawings for a large assembly. I have created a macro that does that but currently I have to open every drawing individually and run it. On smaller assemblies this is not a problem but many of the assemblies I need to do are 400 or more drawings. I do not need to gather any data from the old revision blocks, I just need to delete them and add a new blank block in. I have spent several hours digging around this forum and others digging through code and putting bits and pieces together but have had no luck.
What I have:
A macro that deletes and adds a new revision block.
What I need:
I need open each drawing file in a folder, run my macro, save the drawing and close the drawing.
At this point I don't even need it to ask for the directory I want top work in, I can edit that in the code. Maybe later on when workload is lighter I will try to learn how to prompt the user for folder path so I am not the only one who can use this macro where I work.
Thank you all in advance for your time
Kind Regards,
Alex G
