PhAntoMAMD Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Alright so I will try describe this to give as clear a picture as I can as to what I am after! I have an assembly drawing, and in the assembly drawing I have a list of parts, with each part containing information in the relevant columns. Now I would like to add a new column with a link symbol, that should you click on it, opens the separate part drawing. This would make my life a lot easier as then people can just click and find the drawing instead of asking me the whole time to go through the long winded process of locating it on the server!

PhAntoMAMD Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ok so turns out I was just being stupid and over thinking this. Simple adding the path with the dwg filename at the end did the job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven-g Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 If you would like to make it simpler for users you can add a hyperlink to any object in Autocad, so that just pressing Ctrl and clicking on the object would open up the relevant drawing, the command is 'hyperlink' and can be found in the insert menu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
