Linked door number and security arrow number

[01chang]

Good morning everyone:

I got a question. I am doing the security door for a big hospital project. However, the security door has it's only number system. I need to connect them with the architectural door number. I try to use formula in the schedule to get the linked architectural door number, but I don't know how to combine it with security door number together. Anyone has the problem before? Do anyone know how to combine two different door number system together? I don't want to type the number one by one, because I do not truth my eye and finger. :)

Thanks for all your help!

Sounds like you need to combine text and REVIT does not yet do that in formulas. There are some posts here at AUGI on Importing from Excel. Check this out: http://labs.autodesk.com/utilities/revit_rdb/

Perhaps you can manipulate the data outside Revit then bring it back in....
