Hi all,
I'm building a Revit model for an architect who wants only 1:100 plans, elevations, & sections for the sheets views. He has his own standard details which are already in sheets in Autocad format. What I need to do is to create callouts to reference his details. How do I force the callouts to use numbers of sheets that are not in the Revit set? Thanks.

Import the details in Revit in drafting view and link those.
Or put empty view on the right sheet to get the right number

I would probably just do drafting views (draw at least 1 line in the view), and then place them on "dummy" sheets that have the same sheet numbers as the AutoCAD standard detail sheets.

Then tell your architect to get his details into Revit. ;)

Thanks for that, & yes the details will definitely be in Revit for the next project - after this rush!
