Linking Spreadsheet information to a Drawing...
(OP)
I know it has probably been answered before but could someone please point me in the right direction. I am trying to link specific information from a excel spreadsheet onto an AutoCAD drawing. I want the AutoCAD drawing to update automatically when I update the spreadsheet.
Thanks

Is possible with reactors from Visual LISP or an Application in Visual Basic, but everything depends of what you want to do and how. I did something with the two methods...

http://www.caddepot.com/cgi-bin/dcd/dcd.cgi for AutoBlock for various versions of Autocad. It has hot-links and real-time update.
Also Excellink LT for Acad LT is here.
And Excellink 2000 & 2004 have bidirectional hotlinks.
Office2Cad has an interesting Excel use for multiple dwgs.
http://www.caddigest.com/subjects/autocad/tutorials/pro... has some tutorials on Excel and AutoCAD.
