Macro help required!

Anonymous
Not applicable

I need some help writing a Macro.

 

I need it to save my current drawing to a new folder and add a prefix to the current drawing name, then bind all xrefs to drawing & export to pdf.

 

Is this something i can even do with a macro? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Okay so i have got it to add a "-0" to the end of the file name

C^C^;qsave;saveas;2000;$M=$(substr,$(getvar,dwgname),1,$(-,$(strlen,$(getvar,dwgname)),4))-0

 

However, I am struggling to save to a new folder (in the same location as the drawing), due to it waiting for user input in this macro:

C^C^;qsave;saveas;2000;$m=$(getvar,workingfolder)newfolder/$(substr,$(getvar,dwgname),1,$(-,$(strlen,$(getvar,dwgname)),4))-0
