Hi,
We have a requirement to get a program which can perform below
with objective towards drawing automation and Quality.

Once executed the program should capture Zone Values in a excel for all drawing sheets for below
1. View Titles
2. View Callouts
3. Datums
4. Balloons which call the item numbers in BOM

At next level of program improvement, I like to cover below with help from Forum members or based on my learnings.
5. Identify Scale values which are non-standard
6. Identify non-standard View title naming such as I, O, Q, S, X, and Z
7. Identify non-standard Datum naming such as I, O, Q

All our drawings are of size A0 - 1189 x 841mm with Zone namings as below.
Horizontal Zones: 1 to 20 (Right to Left)
Vertical Zones: A to P (Bottom to Top) - (14 Grids since I & O are omitted)
So each grid measures around 60mm.

Below thread regarding zone for dimensions is similar to my requirement, but Iam not concerned about location of dimensions.

I couldn’t take it further due to my limited programming knowledge.
Request help from forum members.
