Macro for DXF export (sheet metal) from part files with revision suffix

[Andrejs Menkins]

Hello,

I know that here and there this topic is already mentioned.

I need a super simple Macro for DXF export from file. Now im using Macro from Codestack:

https://www.codestack.net/solidworks-api/document/sheet-metal/export-all-flat-patterns/

Which is too complex for me to adjust - or to be honest - im a real newbie.

Problem starts when i need to attach a variable at the end.

For Example: a Part AM-05120-01 is without a revision - DXF will be AM-05120-01.dxf.

But if this part will have a revision (Custom property manually written digits: 01,02 etc.) i need following DXF file name: AM-05120-01_REV01.dxf.

So the main idea is to have such functionality in Macro that reads Custom property "Revisions" and depending on value of this property - Empty or double digits - and if sees that Custom property "Revision" is not Empty, adds _REV between FileName and Revision number.

I hope that somebody could help me out, because im already a bit desperate
