Drawings automation

Jun 23, 2004 2 Replies

I've been trying to get my drawings to print a time stamp which would show when the drawing was printed. I can get the date to print ($PRP:"SW-Long Date"), but I can't find anything that will print the curernt time. Any ideas? I was also wondering if it is possible to put VB commands into drawings like you can with equations.



Thanks in advance, Anders


Would this help? It lets you put a time and date on the print out, among other things Headers and Footers You can specify headers and footers for the active document before printing.

To create a header or footer:

1.. Click File, Print.

The Print dialog box appears.

2.. Under Document Options, click Header/Footer.

The Header/Footer dialog box appears.

3.. Select a predefined header or footer from the Header and Footer lists.

Click Custom Header or Custom Footer to create a unique header or footer and do the following:

1.. Select an area of the document where you want the header or footer to appear: Left section, Center section, or Right section. 2.. Select the items you want to appear on the page (Page Numbers , Number of Pages , Date , Time , or Filename ). 3.. Click OK.

The Header preview and Footer preview boxes update according to the items you selected.

4.. Click OK to close the Header/Footer dialog box. 5.. Click OK to close the Print dialog box and print the document.
