Intercept "Save" Dialog Box Using Python Script

[isocam]

Can anybody help?

Is it possible, using a Python Script, to intercept the "Save" dialog box?

I am looking into the possibility of automatically populating the part number without manually typing the part number.

Many thanks in advance!

You can use the DocumentSaving event to do this.  I did notice the documentation for this event is not correct but it doesn't affect what you want to do with it.  The documentation says you can cancel the save but you can't. That was intended in the original design but it hasn't been implemented so the documentation needs to be updated.

I've attached a test add-in I used to see if this would work. For testing, each time you save it changes the part number to be the current date and time.
