Relations in WF4 - Insert a text file
Good morning,
I have searched for an answer, but I can't find one. It's probably out there, though...
We have a Yes/No parameter in our StartPart called 'Keypoint_drg'. If the parameter is set to 'Yes', I would like to insert, automatically, the contents of a text file into the drawing.
I got as far as:
>>>if KEYPOINT_DRG == yes
keypoint_text == " "
else
keypoint_text == "NOTE: THIS DRAWING IS A KEYPOINT DRAWING ONLY.
error Unmatched quotes
THIS DRAWING DOES NOT CONTAIN ALL INFORMATION TO
error Extra symbols found - ignored.

BE THE DEFAULT TOLERANCE.

"
error Unmatched quotes
endif<<<
Clearly, the relations editor is not keen on multi-line values in its quotes. Is there a way to include line-feeds in relations?
I have the requisite text in a notepad file, but I can't work out how to write a relation to make a parameter equal to the contents of a text file.
Any suggestions?
WF4, M220
Thanks,
John
