I am creating an excel worksheet from autolisp to populate with all of my fuse information from autocad electrical 2011. Everything works fine except that I cannot figure out how to change the width of the columns in the excel spreadsheet from autolisp. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. This is what I have on the spreadsheet: (setq xl (vlax-create-object "excel.application")) (setq wb-collection (vlax-get xl "workbooks")) (setq workbook (vlax-invoke-method wb-collection "add")) (setq sheets (vlax-get workbook "sheets")) (setq sheet1 (vlax-get-property sheets "item" 1)) (setq mywb(vlax-get-property xl "ActiveWorkbook")) (setq *excel-cells* (vlax-get sheet1 "cells")) (vlax-put xl "visible" 1) ;;****************insert header info into spreadsheet********************** (setq fuse_cell (strcat "A" (itoa in))) (setq cat_cell (strcat "B" (itoa in))) (setq mfg_cell (strcat "C" (itoa in))) (setq rating1_cell (strcat "D" (itoa in))) (setq class_cell (strcat "E" (itoa in))) (setq a (vlax-get-property xl 'Range fuse_cell)) (setq b (vlax-get-property xl 'Range cat_cell)) (setq c (vlax-get-property xl 'Range mfg_Cell)) (setq d (vlax-get-property xl 'Range rating1_cell)) (setq e (vlax-get-property xl 'Range class_cell)) (vlax-put-property a 'Value2 "FUSE") (vlax-put-property b 'Value2 "PART NUMBER") (vlax-put-property c 'Value2 "MANUFACTURER") (vlax-put-property d 'Value2 "RATING") (vlax-put-property E 'Value2 "CLASS") (setq in 2); sets row in spreadsheet ;*****************************populate excel sheet**************************************** (repeat (length fuse_name) (setq fuse_cell (strcat "A" (itoa in))) (setq cat_cell (strcat "B" (itoa in))) (setq mfg_cell (strcat "C" (itoa in))) (setq rating1_cell (strcat "D" (itoa in))) (setq class_cell (strcat "E" (itoa in))) (setq a (vlax-get-property xl 'Range fuse_cell)) (setq b (vlax-get-property xl 'Range cat_cell)) (setq c (vlax-get-property xl 'Range mfg_Cell)) (setq d (vlax-get-property xl 'Range rating1_cell)) (setq e (vlax-get-property xl 'Range class_cell)) (vlax-put-property a 'Value2 (nth in_lst fuse_name)) (vlax-put-property b 'Value2 (nth in_lst fuse_Cat)) (vlax-put-property c 'Value2 (nth in_lst fuse_mfg)) (vlax-put-property d 'Value2 (nth in_lst fuse_rating1)) (vlax-put-property e 'Value2 (nth in_lst fuse_class)) (setq in_lst (1+ in_lst))(princ) (setq in (1+ in))(princ) )

AutoCAD Electrical symbol edits not saving
Nebul0us posted a topic in AutoCAD Bugs, Error Messages & Quirks
Hi all, I am fairly new to AutoCAD Electrical but I have created some symbols using the symbol builder. The problem I am having is when I want to edit those symbols I created. After making my changes I am prompted if I want to overwrite the existing files, and I select yes. However, when I try to insert the symbol, none of the changes I made show up; it is still the original symbol I created. Can anyone help me with this? I have 22 MCC's (72" x 72") to design and this is really hindering me. I have been able to save them as a separate file as a workaround but my symbol library is starting to get muddied up with so many different versions of each symbol. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards, Bryson- 5 replies

Relocation of loads presentation on demolition drawings
sam2001 posted a topic in AutoCAD Beginners' Area
I am working on a project where it involves relocating of some optional stand-by loads to the emergency side. On the demolition electrical oneline drawings when the load is being demoed it is shown as dashed lines with mark up as demolished. How is a load which is not being demoed but re-located or re-fed from a different source on demolition drawing. Similarly how to show it on the floor plan as well. Thanks in advance for any advice.- 1 reply

After going through the titles and manuals related to AutoCAD Electrical. I found that there is a lot lag between practical use of AutoCAD Electrical and its manuals available. So, I came up with a title AutoCAD Electrical 2015 Black Book. Please check this book and provide your feed back. I will try to improve this book as much as possible. The link of book is *** Link Removed ***

I have autocad 2012 installed on my system, now i want to install autocad electrical. What would I have to do? I think autocad electrical is not a separate programe, it is just a plugin. but I am not sure. Is it really so? If so what would I have to do to install that plugin?

I am new to this, trying this out to see if anyone can help me. My company is on board with switching to AutoCAD Electrical 2011. However, my boss now wants a list of what needs to be done to start using the product. What needs to be set up or learned? I have played around with the trial version and it is so overwhelming. I have read other post and taken some notes. For example: I found that blocks need to be adjusted, new title blocks need to be created, set-up report layouts. What else needs to be done in order to use the product and use it to its full potential? Do excel templates come with the product or do they need to be created. What needs to be set up to automatically create I/O drawings, etc.? Any Information would be great. Thanks
