Hi I have something like 160 separate dxf files. Each one of them has a common attribute that exist in each file that I need to edit/change/update from time to time.
They are self contained files that can be inserted into other drawings as blocks, but are not blocks of themselves, each file is jsut a simple collection of geometry and some visible text attiributes.
My problem (other than opening 160 file and editing the attribute text value) is that Id like to be able to automate this in some way. I have the scriptpro tool that can do some useful stuff like do a save as for hundreds of files at a time.
Anyone know of lisp routine (must admit I dont know much about lisp) that may be able to do this. IF I could call the list routine from script pro, I can feed it the file names and it can run a simple bit of lisp to search each file in turn for my attribute tag name, and set it to a new default value (common to all of them). Then it could be automated.
Any ideas or suggestions would be welcolmed.
Currently running ACAD MEP 2015.
Thanks
