Nick-H- Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Hi can someone help me out, ive got some tables in Autocad. Is it possible to copy them into Excel as i dont want to type them out again Quote
ReMark Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 One method. You can extract the data via ATTEXT to a csv filename type and then open the file in Excel. Quote
Nick-H- Posted March 4, 2010 Author Posted March 4, 2010 could you please explain that abit better for me Quote
ReMark Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 could you please explain that abit better for me I could but I'm pressed for time. Can it wait until later in the day? I'm sure there are other forum members who are familiar with the command and can advise you if you are pressed for time yourself. Just be patient. I'll be back (to check up on you later). Quote
lpseifert Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 If it's a Table entity you can select it, rt-click and select Export. Quote
Krztoff Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 Yup, just like the guys said, right click the table - export to a .csv fie. Excel can easily open .csv files and then you can format the data to suit your needs. Quote

Nick-H- Posted March 5, 2010 Author Posted March 5, 2010 Nick: Are you good to go here or what? Did you follow the advice given or do you need additional help. I dont think its a proper autocad table think its just a drawn table, is there anything i can do with it to get it into excel? Quote
fuccaro Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Well, copy paste the "table" in a new drawing and use a Lisp, like this old one: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=79 Import the text file in Excel and double check if the data are in the right order!!! Quote
