About Autocad fields
A field is a multiline text object consisting of a field name and a field value which can be automatically updated to show the latest value for data that may change during the lifecycle of the project. Fields enhance the documentation capabilities within a drawing file and add value to the drawing data. Fields are updatable data units within an AutoCAD Architecture 2025 toolset drawing. Fields can be entered into the drawing as standalone multi-text elements, as components of AutoCAD text elements or table cells, as attribute values or as part of AutoCAD Architecture 2025 toolset property set data. You can choose from a number of field types specific to architectural processes and tasks. You can update field values on demand or specify various automatic update mechanisms, for example updating a field when the drawing is opened or saved. AutoCAD Text ElementsYou can insert fields into AutoCAD text, multi-line text, table cells and attributes. When you insert fields in attributes, you can create interactive annotation that displays sheet numbers, project details, and other important information. Property Set DataFields can be inserted in property set data. You can insert a field into a property set definition, thereby adding it to any object or object style to which the property set is attached. You can also insert a field in any manual property attached to an object or style, using the manual property as a placeholder for the field. Property set data can be used to create schedule tables of objects and drawings, or to build tags, annotation, and other content. Schedule reports can be placed in an AutoCAD Architecture 2025 toolset drawing, or they can be exported to XLS, tab-delimited text, or comma-separated text. Annotation Tools AutoCAD Architecture 2025 toolset provides a number of predefined annotation tools that use different kinds of fields. For example, keynote tools use keynote fields, while callout tools use sheet set fields. You can also use fields to create your own annotation tools.

Forum Discussions and Support General Design AutoCAD AutoCAD Support AutoCAD Fields Using "If" Statements in fields? 2008-06-05, 02:45 PM #1 I could stop if I wanted to Using "If" Statements in fields? Hello all,I trying to use "if" statements in my formula. I started by trying to use an excel style formula, but this did not work at all.Lets say B7 is a fielded value from a seperate object.Ex:=IF(B7>2400,"16",IF(B7>1600,"14",IF(B7>1120,"12",IF(B7>720,"10",))))Does anyone have any ideas on how I might be able to do this?Thanks in advance all,Andre 2008-06-18, 03:54 PM #2 Re: Using "If" Statements in fields? Unfortunately not in formula. You can try using DIESEL instead, but it won't refer to another field-code inside a DIESEL expression. Thus your references to cells (as in B7) will be interpreted as text - not a "lookup" field-code to get the value of cell B7. For example this DIESEL code will give an error: Code: $(IF,$(>,B7,2400),16,$(IF,$(>,B7,1600),14, ......... ))If you're using 2008 (or later), try creating your "table" in Excel - include the formulas there. Then Copy & Paste-As Link (with AutoCAD entities) into AutoCAD. This will create a table linked to the XLS file.
