Quick open drawing from part

Question

Hello Team,-Creo 9 with Windchill.I'm looking to create a mapkey to quickly open a drawing of a room that's already open.I've done a lot of research and i can never find a working solution. please don't redirect me to an alternative solution.I know that a part can have several drawings or be included in other drawings. However, in my case, 90% of the parts created have only one drawing, which has exactly the same name as the part, with .drw instead of .prt.I've created a relationship: DRAWING = PART_ID+ ".DRW".I now have a parameter with the right value.Since copy and paste doesn't work in mapkey commands, is there a line of OS script code that you could put in a mapkey to say, open "parametre drawing"?I work in a company that doesn't allow third-party applications to be installed.Thank in advance.

Hello,I made this mapkey many years ago, not sure if it is still working these days. Try putting it in you config.pro and calling mapkey X. mapkey x @MAPKEY_NAMEOpen drawing;@MAPKEY_LABELDrawing;\mapkey(continued) %>partname; %load;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command `ProCmdModelOpen` ;\mapkey(continued) ~ Select `file_open` `Type` 1 `db_4`; %partname;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command `ProFileSelPushOpen_Standard@context_dlg_open_cmd`;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!mapkey >partname @MAPKEY_NAMEGets partname;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command `ProCmdModelSaveAs` ;~ Select `file_saveas` `type_option` 1 `db_129`;\mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `file_saveas` `OK`;~ Activate `UI Message Dialog` `ok`;\mapkey(continued) @SYSTEMdel sw.pro
dir /b *.pic>filename.txt
set /p \mapkey(continued) VAR1=<filename.txt
