I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to achieve, but try enclosing it in double quotation marks: "TBNC30HS NUMBER"

Hi JP,

You can use booleans, strings and numbers for your input parameters:

For example:
INPUT
ADD_HOLE YES_NO
HOLE_DIAMETER NUMBER
NAME_OF_PART STRING
END INPUT

RELATIONS
IF ADD_HOLE == YES
/* DO SOME CALCULATIONS
ENDIF
IF NAME_OF_PART == "TBNC30HS"
/* DO SOME OTHER CALCULATIONS
ENDIF
END RELATIONS

Thanks TeunHam for your tips, it's cool.

What I want is find a way to rename all my assembly, piece by piece with a trail file. Is it possible ? I tought I could copy/paste the parameter to rename the beginning of my file but it doesn't work.

Rename:
shipshaw_p1_r1_0 -> wanapum_p1_r1_0
shipshaw_p2_r1_0 -> wanapum_p2_r1_0

I have about 40 parts.

Thanks!
JP

The fastest way would be to do a file -> Save As, and us the rename by template

*shipshaw* in the first box and *wanapum* in the second

You can then delete the other files.
