I do it manually in all programs, as a post processor instruction

the rel, also the programmers name, the release version of the program itself, etc..

Thanks Dave,

I guess that is the only way to do this.

Try this CATScript. You can add all kinds of info in the Part Operation Comment block:

Language="VBSCRIPT"

Sub CATMain()

Set proc = CATIA.ActiveDocument.GetItem("Process")
Set ProcChildren = proc.ChildrenActivities
For i = 1 To ProcChildren.Count
If ProcChildren.Item(i).Type = "ManufacturingSetup" = True Then
Set PO = ProcChildren.Item(i)
Exit For
End If
Next

vCatVer = CATIA.SystemConfiguration.Release
PO.Comment = "CATIA V5 R" & vCatVer

End Sub

I tried this and it brings catia version into part op comments by replacing any existing comments which is not good.
Is there any way to add this catia version comment to existing comments of part op?
Thanks

Thanks MSSAWATZKY for your script.

Just change one line will meet Samarinder's requirement:

PO.Comment = "CATIA V5 R" & vCatVer & Chr(10) & PO.Comment

It will add the Version/Release info before the existing comments.
