And for the page number, use This Method to automate this process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JONTHEPOPE Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 If Your Writing A Script File I'm Really Not Sure That U Can Use It To Open A Drawing But You Can Use It To Build Layers And Set Variables . Just Write In In Note Pad And Save As .scr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 you can create a script to open drawings, I do it all the time. It isn't the easiest of scripts to create if you are including lots of file names. I now use a custom VB program to build my file list but I used to build the list from DOS and use excel or find|replace in word pad. For doing what the OP appears to have asked, StykFace's suggestion is easier than scripting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
