Hi All,
Is it possible (and if so, how) to get default values from an external soucre like a database or text file?
I know you can set default values in the GSA and you can set a value to be duplicate each time that feature is placed. But I have some common values that apply to all the features being placed (e.g. Accuracy, Maintenace Job Number, etc). At the moment my users have to set these values the first time they place each value, but they would like it if these values could be automatically populated.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers Ian
I figured this out.
By setting my values as environment variables I am able to reference these in my GSA feature definitions. To set the feature definitions, I worte a VBA script to look-up my values in my database, and added this funtion to the Bentley Water menu for my users.
Regards Ian
