AUTOCAD 2002 INSERTING CUT & FILL DATA ON TO CROSSSECTION SHEETS

AUTOCAD 2002 INSERTING CUT & FILL DATA ON TO CROSSSECTION SHEETS

AUTOCAD 2002 INSERTING CUT & FILL DATA ON TO CROSSSECTION SHEETS

(OP)
Does anyone know of a way to take the generated earthwork information you get and insert it into cross section sheets using AutoCad 2002?  I'm thinking a macro program will do the trick , but don't know to do it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

When you say what programs do you run. I assume you mean CAD. I also run Microstation, but no seperate earthwork software only what is available through AutoCAD and Microstation.

EngTony, a little more info please. How the process could be simplified depends on what the process is now.  Is the quantity information from another program?  (you say it is "generated" but you have no earthwork software?) Available in a text file?  Can you not copy and paste the text into a mtext window?
