Hello,
I need to access a Note in a drawing, but it have a follow name: C:TC7R0.
When I use the command getstringattribute, my code don't work.
workPart.GetStringAttribute("C:TC7R0")
Anyone help me, please?
Tks in advance.
re: note name
Object names and attributes are two fundamentally different things. If you have given the note a name, you will not be able to retrieve the note object with the .GetStringAttribute method.
First we need to determine if "C:TC7R0" represents an object name or an attribute title. Right click on your note and choose "properties"; if you find "C:TC7R0" on the attributes tab then it is an attribute, if you find "C:TC7R0" on the general tab, then it is an object name.
If "C:TC7R0" is an attribute, you will need to use the correct methods to get the attribute value. The correct method to use will depend on what version of NX you are running.
If "C:TC7R0" is the name of the note, you can iterate through the part's note collection until you find the note with the given name.
What version of NX are you using?

Does "C:TC7R0" represent an object name or attribute title?

re: name
In that case, you can iterate through the note collection looking for the note with the given name.
Dim myNote As Annotations.Note
For Each temp As Annotations.Note In workPart.Notes
If temp.Name = "C:TC7R0" Then
myNote = temp
Exit For
End If
Next
'do something with myNote
First... Thank you so much
First... Thank you so much for your help.
I tested the code but the value that is returned is not the same as is the note...

re: note
What value did you expect and what value was returned?
Is there more than one note with the same name?
The note C:TC7R0 = "tool",
The note C:TC7R0 = "tool", the returned value is Note 43311...
I used the messagebox only to show the value... but I want to show "tool".

re: note
You can use the note object's .GetText method. This will return a string array; each item in the array represents a line in the note.
Could you explain using the
Could you explain using the code as example, please?

re: note text
The code below shows how to get the text and writes it to the listing window. You will need to have a reference to the listing window already, this code assumes the reference to the listing window is named "lw".
Dim myNote As Annotations.Note = Nothing
For Each temp As Annotations.Note In workPart.Notes
If temp.Name = "C:TC7R0" Then
myNote = temp
Exit For
End If
Next
If IsNothing(myNote) Then
'note not found
Return
End If
Dim noteText() As String = myNote.GetText
For Each textLine As String In noteText
lw.writeline(textLine)
Next

Hello,
In my drawing there are 2 notes with the same name... I need to show the both values...

re: named notes
Create an array, or better yet a list, to hold the named notes. Iterate through the notes collection as before, when you find one with the given name, add it to the list. When you are done iterating through the collection, the list will hold all the notes with the given name.
