AutoCAD Inventor :: Importing Excel Points To 2013 Sketch

Jun 25, 2013

When I use the import excel points function in the 2D sketch menu of Inventor 2013, nothing happens when I open the excel file. No points are drawn in the sketch... I don't even get an error message... I have tried the same thing on another computer with the exact same spreadsheet and it works 100%.

I'm running Inventor 2013 service pack 2 on a Lenovo Y570 with an Nvidia GeForce GT555M GFX card

AutoCAD Inventor :: Spline A Surface From Points Imported From Excel

Jun 27, 2013

I am trying to create a 3d surface by importing points from an excel file. I have been using "import points" in the 3d sketch mode, and checked off the box that says "create 3d spline." But this just causes Inventor to freeze and crash. My excel file had about 2000 points, all of which lie on the surface I want to create in Inventor.

Should this method work in theory, and do I just have too many points?

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 (*.*)|*.*"
fd.FilterIndex=2
fd.RestoreDirectory=True
[code]....

AutoCad :: Transferring XYZ Points From Excel Into 2013

Jan 3, 2013

I've just finished up a ground level survey. I've jotted the coordinate and levels down in my notebook and typed them up on Excel. I'm having trouble getting the coordinates from excel into AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 version.

I'm VERY new to this sort of stuff as a trainee site engineer the most I do is simply take coordinates from a drawing to set out on site. I'm importing the points from file using Civil 3D.

I've simply saved the coordinate on excel as, for example:

430245.454 434264.654 62.321

I get this error "No point file format match found" when I try and import them. I've had a look at some Youtube videos and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Maybe it's the file type I'm saving it under.

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 :: 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?

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 Map 3D :: Importing ASCII Points

Feb 27, 2013

Sitka 1/3 arc-second DEM is the page for the source of the .asc file.

I downloaded the rather large (190 mb) zipped file of a large ASCII file with a few extra things (readme, metadata, report)

I followed this how-to document.

And I get the error message "Cannot set the column 'Name'. The value violates the MaxLength limit of this column." And then nothing at all happens.  No data imported.

Also, if I can't find the coordinates they assigned to the Ascii and I choose one I always use for this area, could that be the problem?

And I'l attach a photo of the 'preview' screen before I get before the error message.

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.
