I have some Inventor7 part template  that has embedded Excel spreadsheet. I want to get numeral and textual data
from that spreadsheet. But I have a problem to get textual data. It seems like Inventor corretly accepts only numeral data.

I apologize for my not well-spoken english.

Thanks

If you are trying to get iProperty information into a part from an Excel table the only current ways are:

Ifeatures
iParts
Custom VBA/VB macros
