Hello,

I'im wondering if it would be possible to automaticaly assign the drafter name of a part to a parameter ? Based on the mac adress or the host id for example.

Is it possible to retrieve one of these two values within Creo Parametric ?

Hi,

I am almost sure it is possible to create AutoIt script/batch file which fetches MAC address/machine name/user name. If you have it ready, you can create Creo mapkey which runs the script and puts the value into part's parameter.

Thanks Martin for you reply. I used AutoIt long time ago for personal use. I should have a look at it for this particular task. It might also give me other ideas.
