Hi All-

I have an old Drawing Format (2005) that I'm updating, and it seems that the format has an embedded macro in it to prompt the user to enter in the necessary parameters (drawing, designer, etc.) upon opening the drawing. How do I find this macro? I've searched all the options, and I can't seem to find it.

Thanks for any help, in advance.

Regards,

There probably isn't any macro as such - it's more likely that there are table regions in the format with parameter names in them (eg &drawing_name, &desinged_by, etc).
Try opening the format by itself, & have a look at the tables in it.
 
It could have some Pro/Program lines in the drawing and/or format.
