but we've been using PC7 for awhile now.

There has *got* to be a way to do this:

Say i have a page title. That page title shows up in an index, and on the page.

I want to update ONE item, and have it update in BOTH places on the drawing.

Do I really need to do external file references for this? Or is there a quick and easy way to have all the basic editable text in one section of a drawing, but show up in multiple areas?

It's reference time. Or you could use search and replace, if you're replacing identical text items with identical other text items.

What do you do in Gardiner? I'm in Portland, and have single-handedly turned on at least (well maybe) a half-dozen firms in town to PowerCADD over the years.

This sounds like something Alfred might have been talked into developing but alas that isn't happening anymore. Sad
