Importing multiple splines from one excel file.

Importing multiple splines from one excel file.

Importing multiple splines from one excel file.

(OP)
Hi, I'm evaluating a potential use of Inventor for my company instead of the program we used before.
As I've only got a 30 days evaluation license I need urgent help to be able to give a statement of the program soon.

My question is if there is a posibility to import a lot of separate splines from one single excel sheet.

The splines are defined as follows:

x1 y1 z1
x2 y2 z2
x3 y3 z3

Can I setup the sheet to import all splines at once?

RE: Importing multiple splines from one excel file.

You can import points into a sketch but not splines w/o customisation AFAIK. Problem is they don't update if you change the spreadsheet, unless something has changed recently.
