    Is it possible to get a property that someone creates read a SolidWorks
    property?

    For example, can $PRP:"SHTNO" be made to equal $PRP:"SW-Current Sheet"
    ???

    Just enter the desired string into the property. Should work. It might
    need a rebuild to update though. If you enter $PRP:"SW-Current Sheet" into
    a custom prop SHTNO it will do what you are asking.

    property in the text string of the other property. this is what i get
    and it works great.

    Property: SHEETNO
    Type: Text
    Value: $PRP:"SW-Current Sheet" of $PRP:"SW-Total Sheets"
