Does anybody have any idea if a lisp routine can be created so that if a block (detail .dwg) is inserted from a detail library that a hyperlink can be added to the block as it is being inserted so that the hyperlink can be used to later open the detail.dwg in it's remote location. We're looking to use extensive folders/sub-folders to organize our detail library and do not want to browse through many folders/sub folders when searching for the block in question. (Side note... We don't use xrefs to attach details to detail sheets as we like to edit attribute text within the block). Using Autocad Architecture 2014..... Many thanks for your help!

Hello all, I have two blocks with different attributes. want a connection between the two blocks especially in the areas marked in yellow. node when the value changes from 56 to 101 to make update the labels. Attach an example. best regards Sample Annotation Pipe for link.dwg

I have a block. In it's attributes is a tag called "website". The block attribute value is a url or http:// that leads you to a picture. The block is repeated throughout the drawing with different values for each website tag that should take you to a different picture for each block occurrence. Currently, the text appears as dumb text, not as a hyperlink. I understand manually attaching a hyperlink to an drawing object. This is different in that I want autocad to automatically recognize that the block attribute text is a link and allow the user to click on the text in the properties window and the picture open. Does autocad recognize text as links like word or excel does? For example: if you type anything in a word document that starts with http://... word will recognize it as a link and give it link functionality. I need autocad to do this. It could be that this link functionality can only be used with object data and not with block attributes. That would limit me to only using civil 3D, but I can live with that. Any ideas?
