      <description>&lt;P&gt;Using AutoCAD 2024 and working in layouts, I simply need to add sheet ## of ##.&amp;nbsp; I searched and it seems that this is not a simple thing to do when I'm sure this is needed allot.&amp;nbsp; I've seen answers to questions that appear to require coding knowledge with lisp routines. REALLY for adding a sheet number?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Please help.&amp;nbsp; I'm really hoping that I'm missing a simple elegant solution.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I've been waiting for this function to be added to the SSM since 2006, among other things.&amp;nbsp; I don't know why they've never developed it further.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Did you create a title block with these attributes in it?&amp;nbsp; Most users are using attributes (or fields if your using SSM) to accomplish this.&amp;nbsp; Take a look at the attached video for the attributes process.&amp;nbsp; Take a look at this blog if you want to mix it up with fields, but not in the SSM:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://asti.com/blog/autocad-field-with-layout-tab-name/" target="_blank"&gt;https://asti.com/blog/autocad-field-with-layout-tab-name/&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;div class="lia-vid-container video-embed-center"&gt;&lt;div id="lia-vid-6327776054112w894h540r202" class="lia-video-brightcove-player-container"&gt;&lt;video-js data-video-id="6327776054112" data-account="6057940548001" data-player="default" data-embed="default" class="vjs-fluid" controls="" data-application-id="" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"&gt;&lt;/video-js&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;script src="https://players.brightcove.net/6057940548001/default_default/index.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;a class="video-embed-link" href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/video/gallerypage/video-id/6327776054112"&gt;(ver en Mis vídeos)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Ah, makes sense.&amp;nbsp; I don't think that's going to happen since most situations don't have all the sheets in one drawing.&amp;nbsp; We work on very large projects and someone could be working in a drawing with 10 sheets while someone else is working on another set of 10 sheets, etc., etc.&amp;nbsp; So if there were a field to accomplish this then it would only read the total number of sheets in that one drawing.&amp;nbsp; That's why users prefer SSM for the sheet total.&amp;nbsp; You set it once and it updates all sheets.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Regarding the total # of sheets, is there a way to update the 2nd half of the total # of sheets on every page? For example, if I have 20 drawings, and I add one more page, then I have to open each individual file and update the 20 to 21. Any way to automate this?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
