Rtext "Last Saved By"

    In a response to an iquiry about Rtext that was posted in the Express Tools, I had asked why I can't get the Rtext to list the "lastsavedby" property. I realize that this folder might be better place to post the question. My Rtext is such:

    Last Saved By: $(getprop,lastsavedby)
    Current User: $(getvar,loginname)

    I can get the "loginname" to work, but no the "lastsavedby." I save the drawing and then have someone else open it up on their computer. The "lastsavedby" is blank. Any ideas about where I'm messing up?

    The LastSavedBy property is updated unless acsiui.arx is loaded. This does
    not happen automatically. It only loads when you use DwgProps. So you can
    try adding that arx to your Startup Suite.
