Structural

based on an earlier query for drawing names in the titleblock, I ended up with the Diesel script

$(substr,$(getvar,dwgname),1,$(-,$(strlen,$(getvar,dwgname)),4))-$(getvar,ctab)

This works like a charm...

I want to include the revision number which is a block attribute say DG_REV.

Is it possible to assign this a variable name so it can be included in the above script to give the Drawing Name + Tab Name + Revision Number?
