AutoCAD VB :: Attribute Export To Excel

Aug 5, 2013

I am currently working on a project where I am taking a lot of Autocad Attributes and Exporting them to an excel file so they can be referenced in a table of contents type of manner. My question is if there is a way to have excel automatically update the tables after changes are made to the autocad file. This file is an ever changing thing so going back and running through the entire "Eattext" command and re exporting and overwriting the existing file is very tiresome, especially when I am adding and deleting attributes daily. Is there a VBA program I can run to accomplish this task, I have fairly limited VBA skills and haven't written in VBA for years. I am fairly new to exporting autocad attributes to excel . I attached a very simplistic example of the general Idea of what I am trying to accomplish.

AutoCad :: How To Convert Geometrical Data And Attribute Of Block To Excel

Oct 3, 2012

I am currently trying to make my AutoCad more powerful as a tool of Engineer but not Draftmen (My boss never thing about it, I could only get a standard AutoCAD, not AutoCAD-EMP).

I want to make it a tool for myself to analysis the building system, with excel (and VBA)

The first tool I wanted to create is an underground drainage capacity analysis tool. But I meet the first difficulty, how can I automatically transfer the information inside CAD drawing to the excel?

Say, There is a drainage system with 2 manhole and 1 pipe,
the Manhole have 3 attribute : Name, Model, Level, (and the X-Y coordination),
I Create a Block with attribute "Name ; Model ; Level".
and then I insert the Blocks and place it in correct location inside the Layout Plan.

How can I create some script to "Scan" all Block inside the drawing and make an excel file with data like:

Block-Serial, X-Coor, Y-Coor, Rotated Angle, Name, Model, Level.

AutoCAD .NET :: Export Room Area To Excel Using API

Jun 1, 2012

i've been asked to provide a way for some cad employees to update via an export to an excel spreadsheet the latest area total for each room in the drawing.  my assumption is the spreadsheet will already contain a column for room numbers from the drawing and a room area column. 

so far i've found out how to iterate the drawing layers.  what i have yet to figure out is how to capture the room area property on the layer so i can copy it into the excel cell that matches with the captured room number from the drawing.  is there a way to access the geometry of the particular layer?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Export Assembly BOM To Excel

Sep 20, 2013

I created a program to export the Assembly BOM to Excel. I am running into a some strange behavior regarding Weldments and Inseparable  assemblies. Here is a snippet of my

'Create BOM Object
Dim oBom As Inventor.BOM
oBom = oAssyDoc.ComponentDefinition.BOM
oBom.StructuredViewEnabled = True
oBom.StructuredViewDelimiter = "."
[code].......

'This is where I put my code to export and write the file.

Next

I run into the issue of the items inside a Weldmant assembly is not being exported. Yet I am able to create a structured multilevel partslist on my drawing showing all the items inside the Weldment.

Whats strange is that even if I change the Weldment assy’s BOM structure to Normal, it still does not make a difference. Is there a way to get the items of a Weldment into my BOM Rows object so that it will export? Whats strange is that if an assembly is set to “Inseparable” but is not a weldment then it exports the contents.

AutoCAD .NET :: Export Layer Data To Excel?

Sep 15, 2011

I have been asked to write a module that will export layer data from AutoCAD and put it in  an Excel spreadsheet. The user wants to have this done through a macro. I am assuming that I need to create a dll that is called from inside AutoCAD but I am not sure.

They want to start with AutoCAD 2008 and once we get it working there we will convert it to 2011 or 2012.

First of all, I can not find the 2008 API and second of all I'm not sure where to start. I am very experienced at programming. We are going to use VB.NET.

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))

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

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 Inventor :: ILogic / Export Parameters To Excel?

May 21, 2013

I want to export reference parameters to an excel table using i-Logic

I found the function GoExcel.CellValues("filename.xls", "Sheet1", "A2", "A10") = MultiValue.List("d0")

It looks like the syntax calls for the file location and name if the xls file is not open and if open is not supposed to be required.

I have entered it both ways and with and with out the target file open and with the function GoExcel.Open("pathFilename.xls","sheet1") and continue to get the error:

we couldn't find C:AbellAbell VaultWorkSpaceDEVELOPMENTAC100-0100MRLTEST Table.xls. Is it possible it was moved, renamed or deleted?

Also, I was expecting that to fill in the sheet cell's would be MultiValue.List("d0","d1","d2")

but the system give me an error that says

Error on Line 3 : Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'List' accepts this number of arguments.

See below
 
GoExcel.Open("C:AbellAbell VaultWorkSpaceDEVELOPMENTAC100-0100MRLTEST Table.xls", "AC-100-0101003-TEST")GoExcel.CellValues("C:AbellAbell VaultWorkSpaceDEVELOPMENTAC100-0100MRLTEST Table.xls", "AC-100-0101003-TEST", "A2", "A10") = MultiValue.List("d194_A")GoExcel.Save

AutoCAD VB :: Export OLE Object (Excel) Text To File - VBA

Feb 8, 2012

I have a lot of AutoCAD files which have embedded OLE objects (excel) inside.  I want to be able to export only the text from the Excel OLE object using VBA (or Lisp, I don't mind which) without having to fire up the OLE application (i.e. Excel). 

The embedded OLE objects have no link to any external files - so I imagine it must all be held somehow inside the AutoCAD file, but how it can be accessed?!!?
