Custom Properties Text Pull down with a predetermined list of Names?

Is this possible?



to have the Custom Properties, Text, Pull down with a predetermined list of Names? So that we can select from maybe a Database or text file?



Im looking to use this in the place when the Drafter's name, the Checker's name, and Approved name would go.



Thanks Chris B, North of Boston MA

I havn't been able to get kcs utilities (which includes the custom property manager) to run in 2007 fyi. It's a great app and I do miss it....! However, maybe the custom properties utility on its own does run in 2007?

Ya don't need to pay money for this function. You can take any number of free custom property editors out there and do some mods to the form and code to get what you are looking for. Check with your VAR to see if they have anything. Hawkridge (western US) has this kind of function bundled in with an add-on pack that they give out to those who have their subscription current.

Chris,

We do this in our Custom Properties macro. What's your email address and I'll send it to you.
