Fill out DWG Properties with variables

[michael.milakovic]

Hi guys,

I wold like to fill out the DWG Properties of a file with System Variables from P&ID out of the same File.

I can fill out the DWG Properties with a text I enter, but i would like to match it with the variables I've got.

(setq si(vla-Get-SummaryInfo (vla-Get-ActiveDocument (vlax-Get-Acad-Object))))
(vla-SetCustomByKey si "PropertyName" %<\PnID DrawingProperties.Category.Propertyname>%)
(princ pval)

@michael.milakovic ,

That methodology is unfamiliar to me.  I used to use DWGPROPS back in 2004, but I would have to look back and see how I did it.  I was the CAD Manager and I used it to see who touched a file when.  The method might not be the same at all.

But I would recommend your looking into vlax-get-ldata (sp?) and vlax-put-ldata (sp?) unless you need to see the properties via Windows Explorer (if that still works).
