part text &parameters

How would it vary otherwise? The place for those conditional statements is in Pro/PROGRAM, the relations section. Relations, by themselves, do not offer if/then, do while, do until or any other kind of conditional branching. That's only available in Pro/PROGRAM ('Tools>Program').

This is a new one on me and I'm not sure I'm doing what you are asking; if I create a datum sketch, Sketch / Text; in the upper portion of the dialog there is a radio button for "Use parameter" that allows you to pick the parameter. (Using WF2.)

Thanks. WF1 & 2001 don't have that option but WF2 does. Haven't tried it but I assume that's what it does.

I have to do this in 2001.

Thanks again
