If your going to do this alot like title blocks then its worth the small outlay of a few 100$ for what you need just to control tag data as text ( not text fields) you could do it for up to $500 with Flexitable or just the title block in out from Cadpro for much less .. now if it costs you boss $50 - 100 per hour while you fluff about trying to modify existing VBA complex macros ( free ones exist) that have been taylored to custom usage
then 3-5 hours later you might have something that sort of works... but no help..
Just build a business case based on this and you should be able to squeeze a few bucks out of your employer
Especially quote things like update 5000 dgn title blocks in under 1 hour by yourself ....
pay for something you'll use alot and its a no brainer... email adam lambert as ask for a quote...
