We have about 100 or so drawings that were given temporary drawing numbers like SK-1234-01 while we waited to have proper drawing numbers assigned to us. We now have those proper drawing numbers and we have to update all of the drawings before they go back to the client. In order to make sure we cover all of the references to other drawings in addition to what's in the title block, this is what I'm thinking...
Would it be too much to expect from a script to do the following (pseudo script code):
Open SK-1234-01
Do a global find and replace on the text, "SK-1234-01" to "IS-923-01-34" and "SK-1234-02" to "IS-923-01-35" and basically go through the whole list, replacing the sketch number with the proper number (about 100).
SaveAs IS-923-01-34
The bold portion is what I'm wondering about... Although it might take a little while to get through the whole list, would it be too taxing on the PC to do this? I don't think so, but I thought I'd throw it out there for you folks to see what you think.
(I will also have to do the exact same Find and Replace but removing the hyphens)
