Accessing AUGI via the Google Cache

Luke Johnson

It seems the AUGI forum data situation is still up in the air – will all that user generated content ever become available again?

In the meantime *some* of the AUGI data can be accessed using the Google Cache.  For instance, if you want to find the Google Cache of an old AUGI page:

  1. Open Google.
  2. Get the old address of the AUGI page ( for example http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=71280&page=5 )
  3. Paste the address into Google and Search.
  4. When the result comes up, click on the ‘Cached’ link.  The actual link will look something like http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCUQIDAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwebcache.googleusercontent.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dcache%3A1yS0KRA-4woJ%3Aforums.augi.com%2Fshowthread.php%253Ft%253D71280%2Bgetlevel%2Brevit%26cd%3D1%26hl%3Den%26ct%3Dclnk%26gl%3Dau%26client%3Dfirefox-a&rct=j&q=getlevel%20revit&ei=AG4BTZStF8HqrAfPqv2QDw&usg=AFQjCNEMUW1ouZzNr6ZVj2py2M6ZanqXig&sig2=BcJo4z9C6M5iCTRATFY00A&cad=rja

This won’t last forever…

Copy Spreadsheet tool updated

Luke Johnson

If you are having problems with the ‘Copy Spreadsheet’ utility, it is likely because you are running 64 bit Revit or you have recently updated Revit. If you haven’t heard of this tool, it is a simple program made in Autohotkey, and it automates the ‘copying’ of data from a spreadsheet into a Revit schedule. The Revit schedule will need to be a key schedule, and you will need to add the columns and rows before starting the utility.

Head over to http://forums.augi.com/showpost.php?p=950435&postcount=1 for the updated version.

I am a keen Revit user from Australia, and I would love to share the things I have learned.

As you know, Revit can be quite quirky and temperamental. However, if you really give Revit what it wants, it will reward you by operating in a predictable, productive manner.
This blog will give you specific, brief tips on how you can give Revit what it wants.
To begin with, I would like to give credit to some of the sources of my knowledge to this point:
I look forward to sharing my knowledge with you all!
