Adding a map sheet name as dynamic text using a neighboring map sheet
Adding map sheet dynamic text displays properties from the current map sheet or a neighboring map sheet.
Properties that can display include the map sheet name, page number, or the value of a selected field.
Selecting the Use map sheet that is option on the Map Sheet Dynamic Text Properties dialog box allows you to display properties from a neighboring map sheet.
The ability to use neighboring map sheets is only effective when their areas of interest (AOIs) are relatively contiguous and regularly-shaped.
