AutoCad 2D :: Importing Layers Into Layer Manager (from Excel)

Jan 19, 2012

Can you import layers from a file other than the AutoCAD types, e.g. .dwg, .dwt etc? I have made a list of layers in Excel that I would like to import into AutoCAD without having to manually create each layer at a time (there are approx 150 layers).

I have an excel sheet containing alignment coordinates i.e

Station Number

AutoCad :: Importing Excel Data

Apr 6, 2010

I am having a problem with my table that I insert from excel into ACAD 2010. The Data in excel is on automatic color and arial text, once imported into ACAD as ACAD entities the data in my table does not want to change to being bylayer as the cell type is set to but instead stays on white. The only way I can change the color is by entering the cell and changing it manually to bylayer.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Importing Custom Iproperties From Excel

Sep 5, 2012

I'm importing custom iproperties from an excel document into inventor using the code I've written below.  I've figured out how to bring up a dialog box to select the excel file I need, but I'm completely stumped when it comes to selecting the sheet within the file.  As it is now, I'm specifying the sheet in the code itself (Str. C).  My goal is after selecting the excel file from the dialog box, have ilogic list all the sheets within the excel file, then be able to select which sheet I need using a radio box, list box or some sort of prompted entry. 

DimfdAsOpenFileDialog=NewOpenFileDialog()
DimstrFileNameAsStringfd.Title="Open File Dialog"fd.InitialDirectory="C:"
fd.Filter="All files (*.*)|*.*|All files (*.*)|*.*"

AutoCad :: Importing Coordinates (or Dimensions) From MS Excel 2007

Mar 26, 2011

I am designing a RCC Dam and the shape of the dam is constant and will not change, but the dimensions of this shape are very likely to change depending upon hydraulic analysis.

I have written a program (irrelevant, but I am using MathCad 14) that performs a stability analysis of a RCC Dam (based on elevations from the hydraulic analysis) and then exports the dam dimensions and coordinates to Excel.

I am attempting to then take those coordinates (or dimensions) from Excel to create a 2-D dimensioned drawing of the Dam in AutoCAD.

I have successfully linked the Excel spreadsheet containing these coordinates and dimensions to AutoCad tables in my drawing, but I am having trouble getting AutoCAD to update my drawing as these tables update with different coordinates and dimensions.

I would like to have a drawing that is fully dimensioned (as the shape of the dam will not change), but that will update coordinates and dimensions as I pump out different dam dimensions from my stability analysis.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Importing Excel 2013 File Into 2014 DWG?

Jul 8, 2013

When I try to attach a 2013 Excel file into a 2014 drawing I get a message 'You have selected an unsupported DGN File.  Only V7 and V8 files are supported.'  Cannot attache through the Import command either.  I know in past versions you could insert the file and any changes made to the file appeared to the attachment in the drawing.

Is this no longer possible?  Surely not, it is way to handy.  What am I overlooking to make this happen?

AutoCad 2D :: Importing Excel Data To Define Dynamic Blocks Properties

Dec 4, 2012

I work for a company that makes sheet metal cabinets. Each cabinet we construct has 17 parts that all different different blank sizes and notching. I have a template for each part right now that I have to shrink or stretch to the appropriate size every time we get a custom size order.

What I've created so far is an excel spreadsheet that determines the sizes of all the parts based on the overall height width and depth of the custom cabinet that was ordered. Any way to define a parts properties with a dynamic block and get the width depth or height imported in from the excel spreadsheet to automatically adjust the size.

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Export Layers Names To Excel

May 19, 2011

I want to export the layers names to Excel, as I used in VBA. I'm using AutoCAD 2011 (64b), VB Express 2010, Office 2003 (32b). I ran this routine in XP 64b and W7 64 with the same problem.

No problem in building the DLL, or loading it to AutoCAD. When running the command, Excel opens, but no workbook is created and I get this Unhandled exception error:

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80028018): Old format or invalid type library. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80028018 (TYPE_E_INVDATAREAD))

   at Ligacao_Excel.Class1.Proj1() in d:documents and settingsjoão santosvisual studio 2010ProjectsLigacao-ExcelLigacao-ExcelClass1.vb:line 22

Line 22 is : folhaExcel = objExcel.ActiveSheet

To program in VBA was much easier, but I recognize the .NET power, as soon as this can be dominated

Illustrator :: Importing Excel Spreadsheet Into Document?

Apr 17, 2013

I have a document that I would like to import an Microsoft Excel spreadsheet into.
 
Basically, my document is a diploma that can range anywhere from 15-250 different names and corresponding dates with those names.  It would save a great deal of time if I didn't have to manually type the names and dates into their respective spots.
 
I have a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that if possible, I would like to autofill the information into the Illustrator file.
 
Between the second & third lines of text is where I would like to enter the first column of text.  It would be NAMES that go here.
 
Then, between the fifth & sixth lines of text is where the second column of text from my spreadsheet would go.  This area would be filled with dates.

CorelDRAW X5 :: Importing Excel 2010 Charts For Editing

Oct 18, 2011

I have been using CorelDraw for years (since version 2) to dress up charts generated in Excel by using copy picture from Excel and pasting (special) as an enhanced metafile.  Now since moving to Excel 2010 and CorelDraw X5 it seems some functionality has changed so that most of my chart objects (symbols, lines, but not text) appear in CorelDraw as two separate objects when I view them with wireframe mode. 

One seems to be the outline of the object, the other is the centreline (see below).  This makes editing tedious because for symbols, I must individually delete the outline object.  For lines it is impossible - basically a line in the Excel chart turns into a "sausage" which can be both filled and outline edited.  Maybe I am just missing an option somewhere to deal with this or is this some option in Excel that I need to change (re- the latter, a colleague with Adobe Illustrator doesn't have this problem on the same Excel charts).

AutoCad :: Importing Blocks Without All Layers?

Jul 3, 2012

I was wondering if there is a way to import a bunch of detail drawings into my template, without all the layers that go along with the details.

See, sometimes I need to use details from other companies within my drawings, and they have crazy annotations and a lot of different layers. It would be nice if I could import their details as one big block into my template that I like to work with when doing my work. Is there a way that I can import that details block (including its color codings and such, not changing anything) onto ONE LAYER. Otherwise is there a way to create like a folder within the layer manager that I can dump all those layers?

It's just such a mess once I drop their details into my work, it would be nice if I could isolate all that stuff, yet keep everything as it looks on their files..

AutoCAD 2010 :: Importing / Creating Layers From XLS / CSV / LAS File

Feb 10, 2012

I want to create a whole load of layers (approx 150) by importing them from a xls spreadsheet into my AutoCAD layer manager. How this is achieved without having to create each layer at a time by manual entry? Note that I created a .las file (attached as a .txt version) based upon exporting an existing set of layers to a .las file and then amending it. However, after saving the amended .las file it would not re import into the layer manager.

Illustrator :: CC Is Not Importing AutoCAD DWG File Layers Correctly

Jun 18, 2013

In CS6, I could import (open) DWG files  and it would correctly categorize the input objects into separate layers. In CC, it is putting them into a group in a single layer,  which is a big usability regression. Is there a fix for this?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Lisp Routine For Thawing Layers Then Freezing Specific Layers

I would like to create one that will fit every project which has a different xref name.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Linking Parcels To EXCEL

Apr 4, 2012

Create a large number of polygons (plines, parcels, whatever) that represent spaces on a building plan

Assign a space number to the polygon

Link the space number to an Excel spreadsheet (or Access DB) so that the characteristics of the polygon (line and fill color, for example) are chosen based on the "owner" of the space (e.g.; Engineering, Common Areas, etc.).

Display a label stating the space number and the space name. Is this best done with "Parcels" in Civ3D, or with "Polygons" in Map, or some other way.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Export Alignment To Excel As XYZ Data?

Jun 19, 2012

I was trying to export my alignment, at certain intervals, to excel (or text) as xyz data. I tried searching and found... Alignment to xyz

But it didn't really work. I can export the XY but not the Z in the report manager.

So my questions are.... How can I create a new report to incorporate the Z? Or is there another way to do it?

I should add I also tried the "Incremental Stationing Reporting" from the Profiles Report... However it doesn't recognize the profiles I've created? I get the "No FG profiles in....." even though there are?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Excel Table Named Range?

Oct 24, 2013

I am trying to insert an excel table using a datalink. If I insert the entire sheet, it includes too many cells. If I set a print area and choose that area, it will not insert the table. The first time it acts like it is going to work, but then never lets me place the table. The second attempt it just will not let me select that data link. If I actually name a group of cells, I get the same behavior as the print area. Have issues with importing excel tables? Am I missing a step?

My work flow is

Create an excel sheet & format the table.

Select desired sells, set print area.

Save & Close excel

go to annotate tab in civil 3d

select table icon

choose from data link

launch data link manager

create data link and choose range of cells as print area.

Press OK

it never let me choose insert point.

I have also tried to simply make the datalink and then run the table command with the same results.
