Excel to IProperties?

[jmcmains]

Currently I have an excel worksheet with a list of about 500 parts, most of which are going to be created eventually in inventor, the list is formatted somewhat like this:
Part # | Description | Vendor | Stock | Price

Is there any way to easily convert the columns into their proper place in the proper drawing properties by embedding the xls files and stating a row, or even a more round-about way? I could type these out individually, but it would be very painstaking.

Thanks all

You *could" use my iPropWizard and use your XLS file as the INI file (see the program, it'll make sense). This will allow you to choose the values in a pulldown. Not exactly automated but better than typing them all out.
