Exporting attributes and the order of hanldes

Hi everyone,

 

I am wondering if anyone knows how the "handles" are organized, when exporting attributes to a TXT file.

 

My problem is this: I have a multi-sheet drawing with 25 layout tabs inside, each with it's own title block.

 

Each title block has 2 lines of attributes that needs modified. I really dont feel like modifying these each drawing at a time, so I export the titleblock to a TXT file, using "ATTOUT"

 

While looking at the TXT file, I assume the attributes are organized as they are in the drawing. But that is not the case.

I do not know which title block handle is for which layout tab. So when I edit the attributes and import the TXT back to my drawing, all of my title blocks are mixed up.

Is there an easier way to try to acheive what I need?

Is there a way to organize the handles so I can know which one it is?

I have attached a drawing as an example.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi  knj777

 

I make an excel formula for you ... you can use it easly to make what you need

 

just write the block information in the orange colored cells then copy the range of cells as the example from the excel sheet to your command line 

it will insert the block with you information in eash layout as you want

 

before you start remove the existing title block and be on the first layout ( P3066-L3-1 ) before you paste the values in the command line .

 

try it ..and if you need any more information just ask .
