Lisp routine use csv to update title block attributes

Hi

I am new to lisp so spare me if I mis-discribe.

Here is the situation:

I have 100 dwgs...

namely 001.dwg, 002.dwg, 003.dwg, so on...

with same block call titleblock with same attribute "Tag" and different value.

I have export a csv using the useful lisp found on site, lets call it 1.csv.

Now I update my csv and is there a lisp to autoload the csv and update all dwg's block attribute accordingly? prefer to be objectDBX so each dwg not need to be opened to be udpated.

Any suggestion are highly appreciate, thanks in advance!

Hi Honrice , welcome to CadTutor

Nice link rlx

Honrice using a script you would be surprised how fast you can open, run a lisp and close a dwg. Repeating multiple times.

I currently use the program by Lee-Mac that rlx linked. It works great.

I'm not sure what you are using to extract the data from the titleblock but the native autocad function "dataextraction" has worked well for me. You might want to try it out unless your lisp routine works really well. The dataextraction tool gets the data in just the rate format that I need in order to bring it back in with LeeMacs program.
