Hi All,
In a previous life, i used to have a short, one-line macro in my MNL file that would read the location of the currently active drawing, find the parent directory of that drawing (truncated to 3 levels) and open a Word document in that directory that is named after the project.
For example, if the active drawing path is
"Q:/Projects/12345 Cold Storage/Elevations/Phase 1/North Storage.dwg"
this macro would open the Word document named
"12345 Cold Storage.doc"
that was in the directory
"Q:/Projects/12345 Cold Storage"
If the file did not exist, it would be created named the same as the 3rd level directory.
After i wrote this, it sure sounds like a lot, but as i remember, it was a short, one-liner. Of course if a lisp routine would be better, that's okay too. I understand beggars can't be choosy.
Can anyone help me with this.
TIA,
Sal
