MSasu Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 You should look for a field (command FIELD). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will post again with visuals in a few minutes. You will want to double click on the text in the location where you wish to INSERT FIELD (from your right click menu), then set it up as shown in the image. This newly defined field will display the saved FILE NAME to the title block. I believe that is what you are trying to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irneb Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I use something similar, but if you only want a portion of the filename (like I do), hen try a Diesel field. E.g. this would extract only the 4 characters from the filename, starting from the 3rd: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
