how to put automatic time and date on drawings

I have my autocad drawings setup that in the corner of all autocad drawings the time and date changes everytime you open drawings in autocad. i want to do the samething for my inventor drawings. Is there a way to do this in inventor. Thanks

Hi ravencontrols,

 

You can use ilogic to do this. Here are a couple of links to look at. There is an example file in the first link:

I hope this helps.

Hi ravencontrols,

 

See this link for the basics of creating an iLogic rule that triggers on an event (such as a Save or Open file event):

Paul Munford covers more details on this here, including creating an external rule (one that is not stored in a particular file):

And here is another reference in case it helps:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
