wsucad Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 We need to locate a drawing that has specific notes in it. Is there a way to search multiple drawings for a specific text string? Thanks! Dave Quote
ReMark Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 DwgSearch by DotSoft will do it but it's going to cost you. http://www.dotsoft.com/dwgsearch.htm Quote
ReMark Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 OK. Here's a free one! It's called DWG Indexer for Google. http://www.autodwg.com/indexdwg.htm Can't beat the price. Quote
ReMark Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 If the drawings you are searching have "fields" then you can use the search feature included with Design Center. Alright then that's the best I can do (three options). Hope one of them works for you. Quote

Galingula Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Because we use TTFs in our DWGs we can just use the "search" function Windows Explorer, and then the find function in the dwg file Quote
