Xref name in tag

I have figured out how to get the name of the xref to show up in an attached
tag, and I assume I will be able to take a count of the block in a schedule.
The problem is the path (for my property def that points to the blockref
name and path) is not the complete path.

It appears that the path is being truncated. Has anyone else seen this?

Also I, can't figure out how to get the drawing property information to be
added.

I also can't figure out what the "Notes" and "Document" Properties from the
BlockRef are referencing.

Can anyone help? I will post files if required.

Rob and others:

This is our situation. We have several "units" that we use to make up a
building. The file name is bases on what type of unit it is - such as
"1BR-FH-DN" for a one bedroom unit that is fair housing and has a den. The
actual unit type could be "1C", an arbitrary designation. I want to have the
unit type associated within the unit drawing. I though the best place would
be to use one of the custom fields from "dwgprops", but I cannot figure out
if it is possible to create a property set def that references those field.

My goal is to create a schedule in the assembled building that pulls out the
drawing name, the path, the Unit type, and any comments (from "dwgprops"),
and the number of times it's references.

I have the drawing name, the path and the quantity worked out into a
schedule. Is it possible to create a property def for the other info?'

We are using ADT 2.

Thanks!
