Checking Attribute Values with An Excel File.


DB007

Recommended Posts

Is it possible for AutoCAD to check the spelling of an attribute within a block and confirm if it matches a word in a list of names in an excel file or table in another AutoCAD file?

 

This is required because the attribute then gets exported to be inserted into another database program and the spelling has to be exact otherwise it will error. The list of names to check are colours and there are approx. 100 of them.

 

What would be perfect is if the attribute is a drop down list which is a live list of the colours in the excel file, but I dont think this is possible?

 

Thanks
