ibandali Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 Hi I am trying to find a way whereby I could have an excel spreadsheet which is linked to the Drawing number of any drawing within a project. So if anyone wants to start a new drawing it need to be linked to this drawing schedule. Anybody out there uses this sort of drawing management please let me know. Thanks in advance Quote
Pablo Ferral Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 You could use the Sheet set manager for this. If you really want it to come through to a spredsheet you could try data linking your Sheet set table to a spreadsheet. It is also possible to use database linking straight out of an attribute to a spread sheet, but it's not very user freindly. You may need to roll your own code for an interface. In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled. There are a lot of very clever people out ther would might just share some code with you.
