Yes, you are right of course Kent,
I read it again, and it sounded different on the second read.
I thought it was a little strange. :o)
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
As many of you know, there is a current limitation with our
new-from-template workflow: certain placed sheet annotation is discarded on
creation (with the exception of border and titleblock).
(Kent Keller's KWiKFile routine alleviates this very issue)
We are evalutating a change to this workflow where certain placed objects
are not discarded on new from template.
We are looking for customer template files to test this new behavior.
What we're looking for are not just your CURRENT template files, but what
you'd LIKE them to be assuming we don't discard objects such as:
-Text
-Revision Tables
-Placed User-define-symbols
You can send these directly to me at andrew.faix@autodesk.com
Your help is appreciated. Thanks,

I would hope not. ;~) I am guessing they are looking into just making it so
what is set in a template comes through just like titleblocks and borders
currently do. Mine just opens the template and forces you to do a saveas,
then opens the newly saved file for you.

Judging by an autodesk post
a few days ago, Autodesk are looking into using the Kent Keller way to
handle templates for a future release.

I made an IDW..
I set up 15 sheets in it..
I re-Named Each sheet with the various part name of the part that will be on
the sheet..
I saved the IDW in my Template folder...
I clicked New.. Selected thhis IDW template..
ALL 15 sheets are there.. But the Sheet names are NOT.
The Sheets are now named Sheet 1, Sheet 2, etc.
What the heck?? I had them all set to "Exclude form count"
But they are all now set back to default..
Ok.. So then i tried this..
I set up a Sheet again.. Named it..
Saved it as a Sheet format...
The format says the sheets Name... (In drawing resource)
I right click it.. Select new sheet..
Sure enough.. A new sheet appears...
but the sheet name is NOT the same.. it's back to Sheet 1, Sheet 2, etc...
Why Doesn't it retain sheet names??????
