The detail you see in the image is the selected detail from the search results.  I'm still toying with some things...such as clearing the listbox on the left when a search is executed just to eliminate any confusion as to where a detail is.

Matt - I like it!  ;)

I really like the search feature - nice job.

Thank YOU for the drawing/block code.  That's a sweet idea having a "host" drawing that contains the details.  This will make updating text styles, layers, etc... SOOOO much easier (if I ever have to do it again).

How are you doing the search?
Does it search file names, search inside the files DWG properties, or do you have a text file with a bunch of descriptions linked to a file name?

Sorry the server was getting too full & we couldn't upload any new attachments, so I had to clear some space. You can upload it again & I'll try to add some more room.

Matt, Barry:

Any chance to get the attachment back? Now that I'm digging OpenDCL, would like to see more examples. Thanks.
