I have a value in a tag I created with a property set definition formula that need text brackets around it. For ex. [1234]. What do I add to the formula to accomplish this?
Solved! Go to Solution.

You can modify your formula to something like this.
"[" & "[Original Formula]" & "]"
The quotes around your formula will cast it to a string and then you can add the brackets to the front and the back.

Glad that it worked out. You can find alot of information about property sets and using vbscript in them in if you browse the autocad architectural custimization forums.
I also visit this site alot to find out about vbscript. http://www.w3schools.com/vbscript/vbscript_ref_fun
