easy way to add Revision block new entry?

Why not just use the "Rev Block Table" in SW's?

If you RMB over the table, then select "Revision", then select "Add Revision" it will add a new set of cells to enter all your info for that revision.

I searched for Rev Block Table, no topic was listed. We use SWX2003. Could you please be more specific on how to add one to a drawing? Thanks again.

Do as you described (first, copy a horizontal line, then extend the vertical dividing lines, then copy the individual note entries...)

After you have made this rev including the notes, select your items; Click Tools Block New Add a name to save block

Now to insert the block; Click Insert Block Pick you block Browse Find your block name Insert

To edit the block double click to explode Now you can edit the text!

Something else to add to this method using SW 2003.

Make sure you add you Rev table (blocks) to the sheet rather than the sheet format. This way you can reload a sheet format without deleting your revision table. Just make sure that you lock the sheet focus before adding the block so it is not attached to a view.

By the way. SW 2004 really does simplify revision tables. It is fairly automated.

Thanks, Richard, Pete, and Seth. I have just created the first swx rev block in the company.
