sheet set manager help!!!!

Hello all,

another help question, i am wondering if anyone can help me in regards to editing Fields in the Sheet set manager, what i mean is i have around 50 drawings and i have entered all the information required on the job eg. REV No, DATE, PURPOSE, DESCRIPTION etc.... and now that that is done is there a way to edit (Rev up, change date etc) multiple drawings like maybe in the form of an excel spreadsheet, that will then update all the drawings Automatically still.

i just think it pointlees if having to click on each sheet in the sheet set manager and change the info a million times over.

any takers??

Cheers Emily

X ref anygood?

Draw the fields in its own drawing and then xref into all others, so when you need to change date, Rev no etc this will only be done once and updated to other drawings.

you could also create a custom field for those and then still only have to enter it in once and it will update all

hi 29 Yes that is an option, but one i don't really want to use due to Standards organisation way of things. :-)

Chelsea, i am using the Custom Field and thats what i thought it did, but for some reason it's not updating them?? do you know what i am missing??

Cheers

Emily

have you done a feild update after making the changes?

do i have to do that for every sheet or is there an option to update multiple??

if the drawings are closed it should automatically update when you open them, if its open you can do a regen and it will update them or fieldupdate or i think qsave also works (i cant use fields at work so i havent messed with them in a while)

Yep done that............ggggrrr very annoying....it has been so long since i have used sheet set manager :-).....will keep messing about with it until something happens...ha ha ha. thankyou for you help though :-)

Happy Days!!!!! i was only creating Custom Sheets, not Custom Custom SheetSETS......problem solved :-)

glad you got your problem solved!
