    Default updating tables from autocad to excel

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    My company just started using autocads tables and now Im trying to figure out how to use all the features. I know that if i change something in excel it will update the table, is it possible to make it so when I update the table in autocad it updates the table in excel?

    Starting with AutoCAD 2008 the Excel and AutoCAD links were set up to work both ways. At least that is what I remember reading.

    You're entirely welcomed, chelsea.

    Now that you're the expert I expect you'll help me out when I start using Excel with AutoCAD.
