hi,

i would like to add a text line to my titlesheets which shows the date 10 days from the current date so the contractor knows the date he has to respond by.

is there any way use the current date in a formula on a titlesheet?

cheers

I did. I found many post on showing the date and time, but none using it in a formula (and adding 10 days to it).

I'm assuming you can't use it in a formula.

Your problem is that Revit doesn't have any sort of string manipulation formulas and also, that the date is represented as a string (I think).

It's not possible with the available tools. You probably need to contact an API programmer to do that for you.
