    Does any one know how I can link the file name to the part number in
    the custom properties of the part? I tries $prp "file name" with no
    success. Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Stew

    Yes. Using $PRPSHEET: instead of $PRP: in a drawing note links
    properties in to the model. As I recall, it also works with custom
    properties.

    Sort of...

    If you have config-specific properties, you can put them into a design
    table. Then you can create a second property that uses Excel string
    functions in its design table entry.
