Hi, all.
In Acad2000, is there any way to find out the total work time?
If I working with many drawings and shift from one to another,
where is total Acad2000 running time?
The Acad remembers it?

Thanks, Khann.

I don't think so. You'll have to get the value of TDINDWG from each drawing
and add them up.

Thank you, Paul.
But my Acad shows me
"TDINDWG = 0.25325304 (read only)"
How can it be read as our Time and Date?

file-> drawing properties -> statistics there youy can find the total editing time

See Julian.lsp in the old Express folder for conversions between julian and calendar dates. i.e
(setq edTime (jtoc (getvar "tdindwg")))

Hint: The number represents the time in Days. To convert
to hours, multiply by 24.

It doesn't make sense to convert that value to a date.

TDINGDWG is the cumulative time a drawing has remained opened.
It has very limited value as AutoCAD can be incrementing the value
simultaneously in multiple drawing at the same time and does
not factor "coffee break" time etc.

The TIME command translates it for you.

Hi, I developed for one of my clients (Civil engineering firm) a utility
that automatically tracks drawing/project time. It is only accumulating
time for the current drawing, even when there is multiple drawings open.
They currently are using it so they can track hours per project then bill
their clients for engineering time.

If your interested, you can contact me via email or phone.

Thanks!!
