Drawing View/Parts List Mass Label Text

@Anonymous or anyone, looking for a way to streamline our process of adding weights to drawing parts lists. At the bottom of every parts list on a drawing we manually add a text box that references a custom user parameter/rule (MKMASS) in the assembly model that automatically updates when the model changes. Is there a way to make this TOTAL WT... text part of the parts list and automatically gets the weight from the referenced parts list model? Or is there a way to still have the text separate but be able to select a view or the parts list and it automatically drop in the weight text box already formatted as shown below?

@WCrihfield I decided to place everything in one cell and that's just how I got it to work, like you have eluded to I am sure there is a better way, I just suck at iLogic.

@WCrihfield I decided to place everything in one cell and that's just how I got it to work, I am horrible with iLogic but like you were saying there is probably a much better way of doing it.
