Add Parameter to Parameter

All,

 

I feel I have done this before.

 

How do I add parameters to a parameter?

 

I have parameter "title_1". It is assigned the name "washer". I would like to add ID OD & THK parameters on end.

For example washer, .265 ID X .500 OD X .032 THK.

 

Maybe too early for me. Can this be done?

create a parameter called description, then write a relation something like this

 

description = ID + "ID" + "X" + OD + "OD" + "X" + THK + "THK"

 

this may seem a bit confusing because you will have parameters called ID, OD, & THK and you want to add

text after the parameters.

Hey Wayne,

Here's an old discussion of this kind of stuff...

Lots of detail, but should get the job done for you.
