More Table questions

If I have a linked table and change the param name in it, the next time I open the part those rows will be yellow, and new rows will be made for the new names. I would have thought the healthstatus would have told me which ones were the yellow ones, but it doesn't?? Would I have to compare the cells in the spreadsheet to the table params to find them or ? -- Kent Keller Autodesk Discussion Forum Facilitator

Kent: It has been my experience that HealthStatus is useless in the context of a User Parameter in R8. It always returns kUpToDateHealth. I thought that maybe it could be checked using the DrivenBy Property but this appears not to be implemented and returns an error. I have never discovered a way to delete User Parameters. As far as Parameters go, the only Delete functionality you have is the ability to delete a Linked (to Excel) table in its entirety. The good news is that you can Add User Parameters using the AddByExpression or AddByValue methods of the UserParameter Object. rw -- Robert A.

Thanks Robert. Unfortunately I was trying to help a friend out by writing something to remove all the "Yellow" table parameters, and all user params that weren't being referenced. Seems like a pretty basic functionality wish. I guess it is just one for the wish lists. -- Kent Keller http://www.KWiKMcad.com Autodesk Discussion Group Facilitator "RobertWilliams" wrote in message news:40b6a30c_1@newsprd01... > Kent: > > It has been my experience that HealthStatus is useless in the context of a > User Parameter in R8. > > I have never discovered a way to delete User Parameters.
