    Depends what format your text is in but using LISP, you could export the text to a file in a comma delimeted format (CSV) and then open in Excel.
    Tip: Please do not PM or email me with CAD questions - use the forums, you'll get an answer sooner.

    If you have a schedule setup in CAD and want it into Excel I have developed a way to bring the text into Excel and sort it according to the Y coordinates.
    I works pretty well but, if you have blank 'cells' in CAD then you will have to move text around in Excel.
    Get AutosXeduLe v1.51 here.
    Murphy's Law applies to all.
    Whatever can go wrong, will, and at the most inopportune time.
