AutoCAD 2010 :: Hyperlink In PDF Created From Drawing

Jul 16, 2013

Three years ago I created a drawing in which I inserted Hyperlinks into the drawing. When I made a PDF from the drawing the Hyperlinks were still there and worked correctly from the PDF. Not sure which version of AutoCAD this was created from. I am now using 2012 and have tried to repeat the process but when I create the PDF the Hyperlinks are not there.

AutoCAD LT :: Excel Link Will Not Open In Cad 2012?

Mar 1, 2012

designer has Excel 2007 and cad 2012 LT.  He linked a table into the plans. 

I have Excel 2010 and cad 2012.  I opened the plans, i double click on the table he just inserted with 'paste special link', and the excel table will not open for me to edit. 

When I linked the same table into the plans, he was unable to double click the table in cad to open the table to edit it.

the cad error is 'FAILED TO LAUNCH SERVER APPLICATION'

I am not sure if it is because he has cad 2012 LT and I have the full version?

Is it cause the different version of Excel?

AutoCad :: Get Numbers From Drawing To Excel-sheet

Apr 18, 2012

I've made a big calculation in a Pipe Stress Analysis program and the program has auto created 10 autocad drawings that is used to find points in the system.The problem is that the program has random numbered (with no intelligence) and now I have a big report which for example points at a number some where in the 10 drawings, which is hopeless to find.

Can I somehow:

1. Find all numbers in this drawing.
2. Put them into Excel.
3. Sort them after size.
4. Add an extra column which tells which drawing I can find the number.
5. Last put all the numbers from all the drawing into one Excel sheet and sort them after size, now I have a number index, so I can find which number is in which drawing.

Can Autocad find all numbers in a drawing and let me copy them to Excel for editing?

AutoCad :: Link Excel Sheet With A Drawing

Oct 28, 2010

I want to link an excel sheet with a drawing, so changing the excel changes the drawing.

I used this awesome site to learn about going to Edit->Paste Special->Paste Link->AutoCAD Entities...but I don't have that choice. Just the one that makes the OLE image. While that will work, that is less than ideal. It appears in just normal paste, but not under paste link.

AutoCAD 2007, A.54; Excel 2003 SP3; Windows XP SP3.

Jan 9, 2014

If it's possible to import Excel spreadsheets into my drawing, instead of using the tables? (Using AutoCAD LT 2014)

I guess technically it would be easiest if I could import LibreOffice Calc spreadsheets, but I can get access to Excel easily enough if it's the only option.

AutoCAD LT :: 2007 - Inserting Individual Excel Cell Value Into Drawing

was wondering if it's possible to bring in the value of a single Excel cell into a predefined window area in AutoCAD LT 2012? Some of our tool and die calculations are done in Excel, but we only want one cell (equation summary or description) brought into to AutoCAD 2007. If not AutoCAD LT 2007, then what about a more recent version of LT or even full blown AutoCAD?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Update Block Attributes In Drawing From Excel Spreadsheet

Oct 15, 2012

I have a basic floor plan in AutoCAD 2012 that has blocks in specific locations which contain personel data....name, phone, computer tag, desk key numbers, etc.  I extracted the data to an Excel spreadsheet and I thought set up a "data link".  But I don't know how to make the data update.

My problem...moves of staff, phone, computers are often made, but no one lets me know about it until they want a new floor plan printed and the computer and key tags get so messed up from the moves that it can take me hours to fix.

My goal is to be able to have our secretarial staff update the spreadsheet and in turn update the blocks in my AutoCAD drawing when it is opened and/or "updated".

AutoCAD 2010 :: Get Sheet Set Manager To Open Up Each Time Open Drawing?

Jan 7, 2013

How do I get my Sheet Set Manager to open up each time I open a CAD drawing? I turned it off and can't remember how to turn it back on. I use command SSautoopen, set to 1 but doesn't alway work. Sometimes if I close AutoCad and reopen it I can got to drop down menu and click on .dst extension and it will open but if I close out of it it won't open again unless I restart AutoCAD. I thought I used a command from the Express Tool menu but can't find it.

AutoCad :: DWG File Properties To Excel Or Access To Create Drawing List / Register

Jun 3, 2011

I am looking for a way to use the .dwg file properties of a drawing to generate an updateable drawing list/register. One that will update automatically as the file properties are updated. I have already created a title block that uses text fields to display custom properties of the file on my title block, such as the job no., drawing no. etc.

I have searched the web for answers, came across this site, joined and searched through it... There are a number of threads that 'sorta' deal with my needs but alway tend to digress more towards the "poster's" needs and away from mine. I noticed that they all talk about Lisp Routines and I have no knowledge of using them. Is that the only way to go or can I use another route? Another one was the Sheet Set Manager but I don't think that this is exactly what I am looking for...

AutoCAD Inventor :: Open Excel File (start Application And Show Worksheet From ILogic)

Nov 11, 2013

I'm trying to start Excel and show the results of some BOM items I have written to a file like item number, part number and description.The task is to find components in an assembly that have a part number longer then 39 characters, due to ERP limitations.

What I´m doing is cycling through all BOM (structured) items on first level and check if the part number is longer then 39 characters.

I write these item number, part number, description to an Excel file (temp.xlsx), so the user sees which Components he has to check for the Part Number (make it shorter). I figured it would be best to do that with an excel file, so the user can save the results to a new file or just check it.

Values will be erased from the temporary excel file afterwards.Here I can't figure out how to start the excel application and open the file in an actual application window if possible.

how to list the results with plain iLogic that would do it too or some other solution to list a snapshot from the BOM.I guess there is no way to add your custom BOMViews ?
