Our company uses excel to do calculations of dimensions for our AutoCAD drawings. I would like to insert a template drawing from AutoCAD into excel and be able to have the calculated cells from another sheet to appear on the drawing. My hope is to be able to enter the information once into excel and be able to print the drawing package from the same excel file. Also, any suggestions if others are already doing this process.
Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
You can print to a jpg file from AutoCAD then insert that file into Excel but it takes some playing around with the resolution to get it to look just right.

BTW, Solidworks integrates nicely with Excel for setting up dimension tables, but AutoCAD never did. I'm hoping that the newer versions will finally get on board with this.

Regards,

CJ
