CAD tip # 9340:

You can use the following iLogic macro to do this. This macro uses regular expressions and their parenthesis groups to parse the filename and get the first and second part of the string delimited by "-" (in the first case) or parse the filename string by a fixed number of characters - 7 and 3 (in the second case, commented out):

docname=ThisDoc.FileName(False) 'e.g. "tracker9864-rev6-7-2013"

Dim matches As System.Text.RegularExpressions.MatchCollection
Dim match As System.Text.RegularExpressions.Match
Dim groups As System.Text.RegularExpressions.GroupCollection
matches = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(docname, "\b([^-]+)-*([^-]+).*\b") '*****-****: $1/$2 = tracker9864/rev6
'matches = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(docname, "\b(.{7})(.{3}).*\b") 'NNNNNNRRR*: $1/$2 = tracker/9864
If matches.count>0 Then
 For Each match In matches
  groups = match.Groups ' parenthesis 1 and 2
  iProperties.Value("Project", "Revision Number") = groups.item(2).Value
  iProperties.Value("Project", "Description") = groups.item(1).Value
  MsgBox("iProperties set to " & groups.item(1).Value & " and " & groups.item(2).Value)
 Next
 Else
 MsgBox("No match!")
End If

Similarly you can modify the BOM, drawing texts, etc. Change the regular expression as you need.
