Need to push info from Solidworks to Excel or MS Access

Need to push info from Solidworks to Excel or MS Access

(OP)
I need to Need to push info from a Solidworks Drawing (not a Part/Model) to Excel or MS Access. These drawings are being converted from Autocad (big push to totally move away from Autocad) and don't have any drawing details just tables/charts. I can't figure out how to link the info from the Solidworks Drawing to a Excel Spreadsheet or an Access database. Is this possible?

RE: Need to push info from Solidworks to Excel or MS Access

I don't think you can push it. You could recreate it and put the data into an Excel sheet manually, but not automatically. Data that is in AutoCad is just dumb text. If it was an actually Excel sheet inside of Autocad that would be different.
