hi everyone

does any one know how to create a rule or formula for a text and create a parameter in the drawing sheet. So that whenever i change the parameter the text gets updated in the drawing sheet.

When in the drawing, click the formula icon and create a new string parameter. Give it some type of value, such as "xxx", for example. Go to the drawing area and create a new note. Once the note has been created, highlight the the text you wish to link to the parameter in the note itself, not the text in the text entry box. Right click, and select "Attribute Link", and then click the newly created parameter in the pane on the left. Click "Ok" and your note will be linked to the parameter.
Let me know if you have any questions...

Thank You GVan for the suggestion. I was able to provide link between parameter and the text such that any updation in the parameter the text also changes. However I was not able to do it viseversa. That is whenever the text changes the parameter is not getting updated. Also is it possible to create a link between two text such that updatiion of one text will update the another.
