Rename drawing sheets using parameters

Rename drawing sheets using parameters

i have a drwaing file with some sheets in it. I use mapkeys for batch conversion of those sheets to dwg and pdf format. Is it possible to rename each converted sheet using the parameters such as &current_sheet_number and &item_no. I want to append these parameters to my tool name say DEM50286_01_02 where 01 is the sheet no. and 02 is the item no.

Is that possible?

The sheet label and a lot of these types of things are system parameters, described in the following:

Drawing System Parameters

As such, you can't set them with relations (I just tried it and it doesn't give any sort of error, it just ignores what I set them to). Probably someone could do what you want if they actually programmed it using the toolkit stuff (Java, VB, or whatever languages are used, I don't do this type of thing).
