Attributing two Inserted fields to the same group with one custom

T

I've imported some ACAD dwgs which were attributed. Visio put all these into
a common "Custom Properties" area. After turning on the "developer mode" and
finding the Insert Field under the Text menu. I felt like~ like great. I
though I was well on my way. But some of the blocks or groupings call for
mult text fields some of which run horizontal and some that run vertical (on
it side).
So far I've only been able to use one "text box" for a given "custom
proprties table" is there a way to use two or more "text boxs" and point them
somehow at the same "custom properties table"? I haven't try yet to use two
custom properties tables and point one text box at each but well that seems
messy?

Thank You
Tom

Just open the group((bottom command of edit menu) that visio have create. In
the window that open add a text box and use the insert field menu to add a
custom formula like "Sheet.i!prop.commoncustomproperty" where "Sheet.i" is
the name of the group (look at the special context menu of the group to see
it)
