Hi all
Im working with autocad2002, is it possible to run a file search based on the summary or custom properties of a dwg? (Drawing properties>Summary) :unsure: :huh:

FYI, in case anyone was wondering becides me. you can do a file search through design center for TITLE AUTHOR SUBJECT or KEYWORDS, but only if you have those fields filled out in the Drawing Properties dialog box. I think it could be helpfull IF you fill out those fields with info about the drawing. I know the files here are all saved with file#s and after a wile its hard to remember whats on some of those files. If your like me i use a lot of cut and paste to speed up my wk and filling out those fields when i create a file with info on the file would help me find specific things im looking for. :)
