Hi,

 

usually in AutoCAD we use frame sheets and some other repeatable data as an Xref attachments so when we need to make modifications we just make it once in the origin CAD file to be automatically modified in all other files that use this origin file as an attachments. OR  you can take an Ctrl+C from your modidfied date and use PASTEORIG command.

Hello,

 

You could use the BFIND Lisp to replace all you want in multiple drawings.

 

Check this:

Hi,

This is what BFIND toolbar looks like.

You don't need to open these drawings 1 by 1 for using BFIND.

You Can show the location of the directory (folder) in which all your drawings are present.

The changes will be done in all your 150 drawings with a single click. You just need to download the lisp from the link provided.

I'm not so sure.

 

It only works if the date that needs replacing is the same for all drawings (unlikely)

 

What he needs, i think, is a way to set the date attribute for a title block (frame), no matter what it contains.

 

Which should be fairly easy, using a lisp to set the attribute & use a script to run it on all (selected) drawings.
