how do i overwrite an existing custom property value?
i would like to force a custom property to be overwritten when the user runs the macro.
for example:
the custom property drawnby is already defined in the drawing and i want the user to be able to run the macro and have it overwrite either a blank field or some existing data in the drawnby value field. the macro i have will add the data to the value field if the drawnby property does not exist but it will not overwrite the value field if the property does exist.
any help is appreciated.

sw can't overwrite customproperty, so delete it and add new with same name
custompropertymanager:: delete

custompropertymanager::set will set an existing custom property value.
