Data link Question Rephrased

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I am trying to create template drawing that has 27 separate Data Links linked to a corresponding number of tables created using the DRAW>TABLE command.

 

They are linked to an Excel spreadsheet using Named Ranges.

The spreadsheet's filename changes and when I change the Data Link's path name, I have to redo all of the Named Ranges and sheet selection over again.

 

And then when the table is updated, the new data ruins the original table's layout, even though the two spreadsheets' layouts are identical.

 

I have tried locking the table's cells format to no avail, and Autocad help files don't say much further.

 

Any tips or tricks i could try?
