Brian,

I changed the functionality in order to fulfill a request for functionality from another company. I figured I could do both with a single addin. You are correct about ‘lost’ numbers but that can be remedied as soon as someone comes along who is willing to pay for an enhanced version.

Jeff,

Just wondering why you moved away from defining the serial number within the “Name of addin” string (e.g. AUTONUMBER:SerialNumber). This functionality worked very well for us in the past and required less user interaction. Also, selecting the desired serial number from a drop down menu, as currently written, allows for multiple serial numbers to be generated, possibly in error which could lead to “lost” numbers in the series.

Jeff,

Just tested the newly compiled addin with EPDM 2009 SP0 and it works like a champ. Thanks for the quick update!

Any chance at all that you could provide the vb source files for this add-in so I could modify it to insert the serial into a variable field on the “Template Input Form” card? Or even just send me the code that I can copy/paste? I’ve already got your PDMWE Add-In template, and it’s working wonderfully! So I could use it as the base and just paste your code in instead of having to have all the files.

If I can get it working successfully where it will insert the serial in the card automatically, then I’d be happy to send the modified code back to you.
